Registration

To register for the JSCraftCamp you have to add a JSONC file¹ with your name and some other information to our github repository via a pull request². Registration is free of charge. Your json file should follow the naming scheme $name_or_nickname.json and must be placed in the folder participants. The structure of the file is described below. We are using JSONC to parse the files, so it's okay to keep the comments from the _template.json.

Out of these JSON files, the /participants page will be generated.

¹ JSONC is JSON with JavaScript style comments.
² Click this link to start the process on the github page to create the JSONC file in the repo. Make sure you are logged in to github.

• Please put in your real name; Location host will check it at the entrance
• If you don't want to put in allergies or anything else, drop us a message at Discord or team@jscraftcamp.org.
• We will try our best to fulfil your dietary requirements, but we cannot guarantee anything. We will post the ordered food in the issues, so you can check if you need to bring something for yourself.
• If you need help reach out! You will learn some git for free.
• Please read the JSON comments, they should explain every field, and if you have questions reach out.
• If you have any improvement suggestions, please let us know.

To test if your JSON file is a valid registration you can run pnpm run test (more details about this are in the README.md file). Invalid registrations will be rejected. If you need any help with registration, don't hesitate to contact one of the team.

If you registered previously and at some point find out you can't make it to the JSCraftCamp, please let us know. Either unregister by writing another pull request, write an issue or contact us at team@jscraftcamp.org.
