The problem GDSC LBCE Website solves

An independent Developer Student Club community website has set the stone rolling for an aspiring, new open-source team of student developers open to organising devfests, learning more and contributing to the liberal world of open
source software. This will allow the GDSC to schedule and conduct events and programs efficiently. Website visitors will find the information they need, effortlessly. They will be able to stay connected and tuned for important announcements, upcoming hackathons, developer sessions and community broadcasts.

My part of the project was focussed on building the theme of the website with material design and modern design elements. I also put together the banner and the about-us sections for the landing page stating the different aims of Developer Student Clubs in general and the community of LBCE in specific as requested by the core team.

Challenges I ran into

  • As I was very new to the world of front-end web development, proposing a full fledged Figma design was a challenge I faced but also, something I overcame.
  • I had to learn ECMAScript 6 (and JSX), HTML5 and CSS3 fundamentals to be able to achieve the final working Figma design representative of the banner and about-us section.
  • ReactJS basics and React Hooks were my next learning challenge to bring dynamicity to the about-us section that I worked on.
  • I also faced the dreaded merge conflicts which I had to learn to overcome as I tried to compile my commits together and merge to the main branch.
