In this blog post we’ll go over some of the work we’ve done since our last progress update 3 months ago.

Event system front-end

The back-end of the event system was completed some time ago. This quarter we have also implemented a significant portion of the event related functionality in the front-end. It is now possible to view and create events in the front-end.

Permission management

Last quarter we built the core of the permission management system. This quarter we have made some improvements to this system. We have also implemented permission checks in a number of extra parts of the website making it more secure.

Front-end rework

In Q3 we made the decision to overhaul the front-end to give it a more cohesive and user friendly experience. We are close to wrapping up the design process for this rework. Once the designs are done we can actually start implementing these designs. At this point we will also share some more screenshots of the website. It is important to note that the functional aspect of the front-end will be mostly left as is, so implementing the new designs will take significantly less time than the original implementation of the various functionalities.

Teamspeak integration

We have entered the exploratory phase of the Teamspeak integration. This means that the requirements are written and we are now researching how to best implement these requirements from a technical perspective.
