We want to showcase a list of past and upcoming events.

We may want to fetch it from a 3rd party public event directory (for easy maintenability).

The events can be used on the homepage and also the events sub page.

Any suggestions on how would we implement it?

  1. Have our own events item from the CMS, or
  2. Host them on a 3rd party service? Meetup.com, suggestions?

Meetup integrations could work well. Meetup seems to offer a GraphQL API. These are the advertised features: API access

Platform to manage a network of groups

Access to attendee emails

Advanced network analytics

Custom attendance forms

SEO-friendly branded network page


Not bad I guess?

I think we might need to create our event management component to allow custom payment integration

00tanveer commented 1 month ago

was thinking of using a local event ticketing platform and then linking our events to the platform's links, you are siding with this approach (referring to WhatsApp convo) @tamalchowdhury

tamalchowdhury commented 1 month ago

By local, do you mean a 3rd party service? Or we build out own platform?

I guess Tanveer bhai meant Bangladeshi Event Management / Ticket selling platforms (for the payment method issues) right, @00tanveer bhai? There's tickify (https://www.tickify.live/) , but not sure if they offer developers api or not. I guess there are some other platforms as well.
