at the moment, the home page is very text-heavy. it would be nice if the "who are we" section was expanded to have more graphics to be more visually appealing and readable.

We are currently using MUI ThemeProvider for dark theme which has the unfortunate side effect of a brief white flash while loading any page for dark theme users

Describe the solution you'd like
When the MUI CssVarsProvider API becomes stable, migration to it would allow for dark theme to load sooner which would significantly reduce the duration of the white flash

Now, every time we load the event page, the site calls an API to get event data. But for past events, we can cache those data instead of calling API every time.

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

We can store past events into local storage, and get data from there every time we load the event page.
Note that right now we already saved event description (fetched from another API) into local storage. We might also change the data structure too, to cache both event data and description into 1 place. Something like a hash map, key is event id, and value is event data + description.

Right now, we are fetching events' data (description and event info) in components. That might not be the best practice.

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

Move all API fetching to page level -- we should fetch API for specific pages, instead of components

Note that event cards are used in both home page and events page, so you might want to consider how to reuse event data for both pages

A current issue with this page is that the events page does not work when JS is turned off, which is bad for SEO.

a solution is to use Next.js' built in server-side data fetching, which would also eliminate the need for the usage of localStorage in the client.

For project page: add a "pinned" attribute for projects we want at the top of the first page.

We move all slides to archive at workshop archive repo. We will call the API to get all the workshop data to display on website

Describe the solution you'd like

community projects are often worked on for only one or two terms. it would be helpful to categorize and sort by those terms so that the newest projects appear first

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

a change to the projects schema that includes an array of terms that a project has been worked on, then adding headers to the project page, where each project is categorized based on its latest maintenance term, and term when the project started

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

a single string representing the latest term a project has been worked on, but that would give less metadata for future us to use

Additional context

this would work also well with the pagination issue #6 as we can set page breakpoints based on the terms

As an FAQ author, I may want to add links for some of the answers in the FAQ page, or format some of the text, however there are currently no mechanisms for that to happen

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like the FAQ to become a markdown document, similar to CSSC's implementation (although I would much prefer headings instead of pipes to delimit questions and answers, e.g.,

## Category 1
### Question 1
Answer 1

### Question 2
Answer 2

## Category 2
### Question 1
Answer 1

)

Describe alternatives you've considered

• the answer value in the JSON file to be pared differently such that answer can parse markdown syntax

I think a md document would be more readable in the long run however there are still questions on where to place the document, whether the FAQ deserves a separate page after this change, etc

Right now, some of the pages have a similar layout (e.g. resources and events page). However, we are duplicating the code (copy-pasting around)

One solution is to migrate from create-react-app to next.js. It will also improve page loads and SEO which is a nice bonus, especially since most of our content is static, we want to have next.js SSR
