Volo System
It's a (WIP) all-in-one app for signing up & managing volunteers. Current functionality includes creating events, magic-link login & signing up for volnteering.
I'm doing this project because I was volunteering at cultural events in my hometown, and the volunteer coordinators spent a lot of time just copying data between Google Sheets and Forms. They made mistakes, and wasted time that could otherwise have been used for supporting volunteers and the event. I want to give them the time to make cultural in my town better.

I've done some bugfixes and finally, my project IS RUNNING ON NEST!!!! Please check out https://volo-system.wacper.hackclub.app . If you see any bugs or have feedback, please lmk on Slack (@wacper). I want to make it the best app possible. It's still a WIP but I've shipped an MVP today. Attached is a video showcasing the functionalities.

Okay... So... During the development process I completely disregarded the type errors it was throwing at me... I thought it was some gimmock, some whim with no realistic implication. It turns out that type errors (in f#cking TYPEscript) are a serious thing. I hate myself for ignoring them. I was excited to deploy my website but the last 2 hours I have spent on fighting type errors. I will never, ever, ever, EVER again disregard a type error. I regret doing so. Attached you will find a picture of my nightmare of the past 2 hours, and probably no less than one more to go. I really AM hating it. I promise, I will fix every single type error that pops up in the future. Signing off,

I've added a different view for event owners, and a feature to copy the link to volunteer signups.
After... a bit more time than I expected... You can now view parts of volunteer data in the dashboard!!!
Sooo! I figured Volo System was looking sad. Volunteering is inherently NOT a sad activity. I'm working to make the UI happier. I selected a nice color — violet — to lead the UI. EVERY. SINGLE. FONT. is comic sans now. I want to make it customizable tho. If you're not fun like that, you're gonna be able to turn to a boring, corporate font.
You can now register to volunteer! Owners cannot register to volunteer, and people can register only once. You need to have your email verified to volunteer.
I moved the event list to the dashboard panel, same with the new event form -> now it's a dialogue box. I'm working on the UI now.
Events now have owners, and only the owner can view them! Also, magic link login was implemented and is the only available form of login.
Hey! I've started implementing an event database functionality. You can add events, and view them. Also, you can't view nor add them without being logged in!
