What is this Events Platform All About?
Socializing is more than just a social obligation. It is a necessity to meet other social beings. However, the global pandemic had put a full stop to attending events. Even worse was the financial loss suffered by the events and entertainment industry. Gradually, when people started stepping out, there was still one thing missing. A centralized platform for posting event details. Soon our client, Kidd Wong, came up with the idea of launching an event organizing website, through which event organizers could host various gatherings like conferences, school/college meetings, etc.
Available in two languages, English & Chinese, it is an outstanding event-hosting platform. This event management and planning is better than the existing competitors because of the exclusive functionalities that we have equipped it with.
This is not open-source but an invite-only platform like Clubhouse. Our development team has put in multiple efforts from the technical end, like minimum slow-down response. The website has backup servers to support a thousand users simultaneously. To know more, keep reading this portfolio article section by section.
The Outcomes of this Engaging Event Organizing Website
There are three sets of stakeholders who use the platform. Let us give you an overview of each user panel.
Fully-functional Web App for Event Guest Users
- The attendees can log in through the credentials they have received from organizers and check out the event details. (name, time, event venue, theme, etc.)
- Users can get more lucky draw tickets by watching video ads and answering quizzes.
- With those tickets, one can redeem lucky draw prizes.
- Guests can get through the entry by scanning the QR code.
- Attendees can use the AR background and face filters and click selfies. Later, they can post the same on the event photo booth which will then be seen by the event organizer.
Web Panel for Super Admin/Client
- The super admin has all the rights to control the platform since he/she is the owner.
- He can allow or disallow the hosts from creating events like conferences, fests, party celebrations, competitions, etc.
- Also, he can keep an overall check on all the activities on his platform. Like, he can check the photo booth uploads, QR codes scanned, number of guests, upcoming events in the dashboard.
Website for Event Planners/Organizers/Hosts
- The event organizers are responsible for creating the events and are the only authorized personnel to make the guest list and share the entry credentials/QR details with them.
- Using this meeting planning software, they can host various events like conferences, meetings, lectures, stand-up comedy, etc.
- Hosts invite guest users, provide them with login information, and enable their QR code entry access.
- They can also enable the event live streaming via broadcast, chatroom, etc.
- Announce and give out prizes to lucky draw winners.
- In the end, they can generate reports for their event to know how many people attended the event, who entered at what time, etc.

Extra Mile of Efforts in Project from Excellent Webworld Team
We understand how important the project is for each client. We treat our client’s products as our products. For this, we go the extra mile, burn the midnight oil if required, but ensure to deliver only the best results. A successful product is the result of our teamwork.
Our client, Kidd Wong, wanted us to integrate some uniquely desirable functionalities, such as Projector Screening through real-time LIVE Broadcast.
Not all event platforms are available for use on various devices. So, apart from making the mobile responsive website for multiple devices like PC, and iPad, we also made the website compatible with larger view projector screening. This enables the event organizers to broadcast the LIVE screening at the venue. We used clean coding patterns for the entire project. It did take us a while to work with such a high resolution, yet we made it happen!
Adding more to this, we relentlessly provided post-deployment support for three months to our client’s team. This involved spotting and fixing bugs and making it a smoother experience for all the users.

We made a smooth-functioning, lightweight website that is responsive in all device types – mobile, iPad, desktop, laptop, etc.
Challenges & Solutions in the Course of Project Development
Solution :
We integrated the platform with the most cost-effective and lightweight third-party API. This is typically done using CodeIgniter PHP. However, our skilled developers made it possible with Python. Users can click real-time selfies.
Solution :
We formulated two ways of announcing the lucky draw winners. The bulk winner announcement can be made in two ways – automatic via the spinner and random manual selection. In the new upgrade (yet to be released), we are working on announcing bulk winners at once.
