Overview
For this project, we developed a school event tracking system utilizing HTML, CSS, MySQL, and PHP. The primary objective was to create a centralized platform where users can submit and view events from the various clubs adn organizations at the school. The system ensures that all approved events are accessible to the entire school community, while only those with an account being able to create events.
Implementation
The front-end of the website was built using HTML and CSS. PHP was employed for database manipulation, handling user authentication, event submissions, and administrator privileges. MySQL served as the database management system, storing user information, event details, and administrators.
Work Load
In terms of workload, I (Julio) was mainly in charge of the event creation page, as well as ensuring that events were properly displayed on the main page. Andrew was responsible for creating user authentication, including login and signup, as well as creating an administrator page, with exclusive access to certain users.
Issues
Various issues were encountered during this project. During event creation, we wanted to have a more complex room number selection system. We also had issues implementing a system to delete events in the administrator page.
Future Plans
Future implementations would involve the addition of a better admin page, featuring improved methods for adding approved events and deleting unapproved events. We would also enhance mobile support.
