Event Conference

A dense, structured single-track conference website template built with semantic HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript. Light, neutral, and typography-driven: a sticky header with brand mark, date, anchor nav, theme toggle, and responsive mobile drawer; an editorial hero with a clamp() headline, facts grid (dates / location / talks / capacity), and a live countdown card; an about section with highlights table and a four-up stat row; a speakers grid (avatar initials, name, role, talk); a two-day schedule with an ARIA tablist (arrow-key nav, Home/End) and a time-rail slot list; a venue section with details table; a capped sponsorship tier list; and a three-tier register panel (early-bird / standard / workshop) + footer. Split into modular files: code.html + style.css (the --ds-* design-token system from design-tokens.md, light-default + calm opt-in dark mode, reduced-motion guard) + script.js (theme toggle, mobile nav, schedule tabs, live countdown, reveal), with preview.html as a self-contained single-file preview. No React, Vue, Next.js, Tailwind, Bootstrap, or backend.

What's inside

Everything the folder ships.

Straight from the registry's metadata — every line maps to a file you can open in the source tabs below.

  • sticky header with brand mark, date, anchor nav, theme toggle, and responsive mobile drawer (aria-expanded)
  • editorial hero with clamp() headline and facts grid (dates / location / talks / capacity)
  • live countdown card counting down to event start (days/hours/mins/secs), paused when tab hidden
  • about section with highlights table and four-up stat row
  • speakers grid (avatar initials, name, role, talk title)
  • two-day schedule with ARIA tablist (arrow-key + Home/End navigation) and time-rail slot list
  • venue section with details table (venue / address / transit / doors / access)
  • capped sponsorship tier list (Partner / Supporter)
  • three-tier register panel (early-bird / standard / workshop) with feature lists
  • light-default theme with calm opt-in dark mode (no-flash pre-paint script + persisted toggle)
  • IntersectionObserver scroll-reveal (.reveal -> .is-visible, reduced-motion safe)
  • DevSnips --ds-* shared design-token layer (design-tokens.md) with template tokens on top
  • hairline 1px borders, small controlled radii, restrained shadows, single controlled accent
  • modular file split (code.html + style.css + script.js)

Install

One command, whole folder.

Pulls the template into your project through the DevSnips CLI. The registry path below is stable across the CLI, MCP server and Skills.

terminal · npm
npx devsnips add Vanilla/Templates/event-conference
registry path Vanilla/Templates/event-conference 7 files

AI-ready

Hand the whole job to your agent — Cursor, Cline, Claude Code or Windsurf. One prompt installs the template, fixes the theme toggle, optimises it and reshapes it for what you are building.

Scaffold the DevSnips template "Event Conference" (Vanilla/Templates/event-conference) into this project, then audit, fix and tailor it.

1. Install — if the DevSnips MCP server is connected, fetch the resource with get_resource(id="Vanilla/Templates/event-conference"). Otherwise run npx devsnips add Vanilla/Templates/event-conference and install the dependencies the template declares.

2. Audit — check the template end to end before changing anything: theme toggling (dark/light), responsive behaviour, accessibility, unused files and assets.

3. Fix — repair what the audit found, starting with the theme toggle: it must persist across reloads, never flash the wrong theme on first paint, and every component must read the same tokens in both modes.

4. Optimise and adapt — trim what the site does not need, then customise the template for the product being built here: replace the placeholder branding, copy, imagery, navigation and routes so it reads as this project rather than as a demo.

# Event Conference

A dense, structured single-track conference website template. Part of the DevSnips Vanilla Templates collection and built on the shared [`design-tokens.md`](../design-tokens.md) `--ds-*` token system.

## Design language

Minimal · light · editorial · neutral · typography-driven · restrained.

- Light-default, calm opt-in dark mode (no-flash, persisted).
- Hairline 1px borders over shadows; small controlled radii.
- Inter (text) + JetBrains Mono (labels / metadata), system fallbacks.
- Single controlled blue accent; neutral-first palette.
- Information-dense: schedule, stats, and details tables over decoration.

## Structure

```
event-conference/
├── pages/
│   ├── code.html      # HTML structure (links style.css + script.js)
│   ├── style.css      # design system (--ds-* tokens)
│   └── script.js      # theme toggle, mobile nav, schedule tabs, countdown, reveal
├── preview.html       # self-contained single-file preview (inlines CSS+JS)
├── metadata.json
└── README.md
```

`preview.html` opens directly with no backend. The modular files in `pages/` are for customization.

## Sections

1. **Header** — brand mark + date, anchor nav, theme toggle, mobile drawer.
2. **Hero + countdown** — editorial `clamp()` headline, facts grid, live countdown card.
3. **About** — narrative + highlights table + four-up stat row.
4. **Speakers** — grid of speakers (avatar initials, name, role, talk).
5. **Schedule** — two-day ARIA tablist + time-rail slot list.
6. **Venue** — narrative + details table.
7. **Sponsors** — capped Partner / Supporter tiers.
8. **Register** — three-tier ticket panel (early-bird / standard / workshop).
9. **Footer** — copyright + footer links.

## Interactions

Scoped, dependency-free vanilla JS:

- Theme toggle (light ↔ dark, persisted, no-flash pre-paint).
- Mobile nav drawer (`aria-expanded`, Esc closes, auto-close on link click).
- Schedule tablist (ARIA `role=tab`, roving tabindex, Arrow Left/Right/Home/End).
- Live countdown to event start (paused when tab hidden).
- Scroll-reveal (`.reveal` → `.is-visible`, reduced-motion safe).

## Accessibility

Skip link, semantic landmarks, single `h1`, ARIA tablist with full keyboard navigation, `role=timer` countdown, `:focus-visible` rings, native controls throughout, `prefers-reduced-motion` guards.

## Responsive

Three breakpoints (640 / 768 / 1024). Zero horizontal overflow at 320–1920px. Header CTA hides on very small screens (available in the drawer); countdown grid collapses to 2 columns at 320px; speakers/register grids reflow; hero splits to two columns on desktop.

## Dependencies

Google Fonts (Inter + JetBrains Mono). No framework, no build step.
