Giving the community page some love #465

Closed FloorD closed 2 years ago

FloorD commented 2 years ago

The community page at present is pretty barebones. I'd like to add little blocks (taking inspiration from the start page developer.aiven.io) to organize the references to Twitter, GitHub, the blog, and YouTube:

I'd also love to add a block to share (technical, community) events where people can meet us (we speak at / run a booth at). In a first integration this'd be hardcoded, but I'd love to eventually pull this data from a/our Google calendar, or using Meetup(s) API.

Month XX, [Event]() Who's speaking / what's happening?

So, for example: January 20, PHP User Group Frankfurt Join Lorna Jane for "Aiven for Laravel"

Super ideas! :D

@lornajane WDYT? What could work best in terms of pulling in event data? A Google Calendar connection? Maybe https://developers.google.com/calendar/api/v3/reference/events/list#python

In the past I've used the Meetup API, but Aiven doesn't have a Meetup page and creating one for this integration only adds a source we'd need to monitor. Unless you'd consider using Meetup to add discoverability for Aiven events, webinars, stuff?

I don't have a data source that we can automate on this, and I am not sure we'd want to pull in everything in any case. So getting the right data into one place is a first step, but I love the idea :heart:
