Open Timtech4u opened 5 years ago
Since this is a CSS-Tricks project, my first inclination is for us to start listing upcoming conferences in our own newsletter: https://css-tricks.com/newsletters/
Okay, sounds good.
No need to close this, I'll re-open to keep it on the radar.
@chriscoyier I'd be interested in picking this up but not sure how far I could take it in terms of a complete delivery. The client-side aspect can be catered for but a server-side endpoint would need to be exposed to save this information once it's sent from the front-end. Thoughts?
@andrewhiles It's interesting to think about!
I don't think, especially for a v1, that we would do anything fancy like let people know about conference nearby them or by topic or anything.
I would think people would want to know...
One thing to know is that the build process on this site runs every day (or maybe even more often).
So here's an idea... when the build process runs, it somehow figures out the 5-10 nearest upcoming conferences are, and the 5-10 conferences that have been most recently added to the site, and renderes them out to an HTML template.
Then a cloud-function could run on a weekly CRON or something that picks up that HTML and sends it to a list of emails stored in some cloud storage thingy (Fauna?)
Hi, awesome work you're doing.
I think there should be a form allowing users signup to newsletter or updates.
Thanks
