Here's the code of the website pycon-nl.org.

• SvelteKit & Svelte
  • Using the SvelteKit Static Adapter.
• Vite
• TypeScript
• TailwindCSS
• Hosted on Github Pages
• Prettier for code formatting

This should do it all:

npm i
npm run dev

Releasing is as simple as pushing/merging to main. For more information about how older versions of the site are injected, see https://github.com/code-star/event-ops-template.

This is the first place to update. It controls what the whole site displays:

• YEAR — the current conference year
• CONFERENCE_DATE, CONFERENCE_DAY, PAPERS_PROPOSAL_DEADLINE, CONFERENCE_VENUE
• TICKETS_URL, PAPERS_FORM_URL, VOLUNTEERS_FORM_URL — update or replace with new links
• PLATINUM_PRICE, GOLD_PRICE, SILVER_PRICE, BRONZE_PRICE — adjust if pricing changes
• HIDE_CALL_FOR_PAPERS, HIDE_CALL_FOR_VOLUNTEERS — toggle visibility of those pages

After changing YEAR, verify all links and dates are correct before publishing.

Add the new year to the rooms and timeSlots objects (use empty arrays until confirmed):

const rooms2026 = [] as const;           // fill in when venue rooms are known
const timeSlots2026 = [] as const;       // fill in when programme is set

export const rooms = {
    2025: rooms2025,
    2026: rooms2026,   // ← add this
} as const;

The AllYears union type is derived automatically from the rooms keys — no manual update needed.

Each year has its own folder under src/lib/data/<year>/ with three files:

Until data is added the site shows graceful fallbacks:

• Schedule page → "Coming soon"
• Speakers page → "Speakers coming soon" placeholder
• Sponsors page → nothing shown

Nothing to do — past year data lives in its own folder (e.g. data/2025/) and is never removed. Speaker profile pages (/speakers/[id]) and talk detail pages automatically reflect the full history via the allSchedules registry.

If a speaker returns in a future year, add them again to that year's speakers.ts using the same id. The aggregator in data/speakers.ts will merge their years[] array so their profile page lists all their talks across editions.
