I would caution against an API, and rather suggest something more along the lines of an event catalog. Basically, you want a data only representation of the schedule that you'd want the whole world to have unrestricted access to, and which should be static enough that you needn't have an API. We could go with something microformat oriented like hCalendar/hEvent. You can shove that into a cheap CDN and never feel load on your web server again. ;-) The closest I'd want to come to an API for at least the raw schedule information would be something like CalDAV (and for something like that, we can probably get away with just publishing to Google Calendar or similar services).Now, the fun part is the personalized content, but I'll leave that for a later discussion...--ChrisOn Mon, Mar 6, 2017 at 11:27 PM, der.hans <Verteiler+SCaLE-planning@lufthans.com> wrote:Am 06.

moin moin,
we talked about offline access to the schedule ( and many other things )
on the way home. A 5 hour drive gives us plenty of opportunity to discuss
how the event went :).[0]
We actually were wondering about exporting the schedule or making it
available via an API. Heck, putting it in a repo would be awesome :).
Even if Guidebook were better, I would like to easily pull the schedule
and script up some slicing and dicing.
[0] Quite well was the consensus :).
ciao,

So, is anyone interested in making the website work better when
offline? If the website has offline capability, and can preload the
schedule, exhibitor list, and talk abstracts, then we probably won't
need the separate Guidebook app to provide the same data.

Posting this now so I don't forget: ran a test with Lighthouse
(https://developers.google.com/web/tools/lighthouse/ ) on the SCALE homepage.
There were definitely some areas we could improve. When it comes time to
look at the redesign, I want to make sure we re-evaluate.
