This project powers the EuroPython 2025 website, Discord bot, and internal bot 🦜 by downloading, transforming, and serving clean, structured JSON files for sessions, speakers, and the schedule, all pulled from Pretalx.
Built for transparency. Designed for reuse. Optimized for EuroPython.
- Downloads submission and speaker data from Pretalx.
- Transforms raw data:
- Removes private/irrelevant fields
- Normalizes formats
- Adds computed fields (e.g. URLs, delivery mode)
- Serves the transformed JSON files via a static API.
-
