• Don't blow up on direct calls to os.environ in setting.server
  • The new salt deployment tooling relies less on environment variables, and leans heavily on tempting files onto the file system. This also does away with the IS_PRODUCTION environment variable, so there are other things we can tidy up as well
• Modify LESS for syntax changes
  • HONESTLY NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING, just modified to get manage.py compress working.
• Fixes all fabric tasks to work with new infrastructure

Enhancements the usability, responsiveness, and design of the 2018 site.

Major Accomplishments

New responsive and keyboard accessible navigation

First off, this navigation is totally responsive. Small screens will see a collapsed menu which they can expand to navigate. (I prefer using the word "Menu" over the hamburger icon as it's been shown that users are more likely to click the word "Menu".)

On larger screens, the collapsed menu goes away and we see the standard horizontal menu. I changed the functionality of this a bit, so that the dropdown menus appear on click, rather than on hover. The line between hover-capable devices and touch devices is becoming more and more blurred, and so I find it's best to avoid hover functionality as much as possible so that all users are guaranteed the same, working experience. I've included small arrow icons next to each item as a visual clue so users know that these menu items will expand.

The navigation is totally keyboard accessible. You can tab your way through the primary navigation items, hit "return" to open and close dropdowns, and tab through the dropdown items.

Lastly, we are prepared for situations with no JavaScript. Dropdown navigations typically have to make use of JS, and that's what we're doing here. But in the event that JS is not available, we fall back to a full navigation that is completely styled and usable. It takes up a lot of room, sure, but this is just a fallback that ensures the user can still navigate.

Responsive header graphic

I updated the home page banner so that the image is responsive and makes use of the screen real estate available.

Other enhancements in the home banner include updated cloud graphics and animation, as well as including the ribbon graphic with the tagline that was in the provided designs. I changed some colors around a bit here. I wasn't sure whether to stay closer to what was already coded on the site or what the provided designs looked like, so I split the difference.

~~To Do~~ Done:

• [x] Responsive, accessible, JS-fallback primary navigation
• [x] Responsive header graphic
• [x] New cloud graphics/animation
• [x] Style buttons, forms, account pages, etc..
• [x] Double check styles for the logged-in state of the top banner
• [x] Sticky footer
• [x] Other general CSS tweaks and responsiveness.

In this scheme, each group has it's own start/stop times for leaving speaker comments and doing voting.

Additional work to come with more utilities for working with groups (e.g. auto-assignment of proposals to groups).

For now this should be stand-alone though.

NOT READY TO MERGE, just looking for feedback. Take a look at pycon/settings/README.rst, try it out locally. Does it seem reasonable? Is it okay to require creation of local_settings.py before anything will work? What else is good or bad about this approach?

Known issues:

1. ~Logo not showing on FF~

2. ~Empty h1 is pushing down content~ Temporary fix pushed. See https://github.com/PyCon/pycon/issues/655 for a better fix

3. ~password reset page~

4. ~Check page where user resets password @ewdurbin - how can I access this in dev?~

Flag for Job Fair Participation

Added a job_fair_participant BooleanField on the Sponsor model and make editable in Django Admin.

Auto generate Job Fair Participant/Table Listing

Dynamically generate an HTML table on the sponsors/jobs page with Sponsor name and their job_fair_table_number if the Sponsor is a job_fair_participant.

Smarter Templates for Sponsor Emails

Added Django Template functionality to Sponsor.send_email that allows for Django Template logic in Sponsor email sends... Hard to explain 😢

Hello @jasonamyers, @lorenanicole, @jackiekazil!

I'd like to welcome your feedback on collecting some new booleanish fields during creation of speaker profiles.

Screencap of how this appears as of 5f9b92199ebc8a6e3f9b8eaf69e6169711c14566:

This is a pull request to make the proposal API better.

This pull request:

• Causes the basic information about a proposal to be pulled down when proposal data is requested, as well as API-written data.
• Replaces the API keys in the URLs. This isn't bank data, but it's just private enough that API keys in open URLs as a security mechanism is insufficient. API keys are now sent in headers, and requests must be signed with a secret key.

When someone proposes a lightning talk, the category is automatically set to "Testing" (viewed from the admin dashboard side). It is also not available to select a category as a submitter. Can we make it available for a submitter to choose?

• [ ] Explore better solution for the account bar on desktop sized screens. I made the account bar a full width bar to distinguish it from the other navigation content.
• [ ] The active nav items' underline extends past the copy. It should end at the last letter of the nav item.
• [ ] Active nav item adds a bottom border to all it's child LIs. Make sure it's only the main nav LI that gets the bottom border on hover/active.
• [ ] On the CMS page, the hills image to the left of the breadcrumbs is a little shorter than the breadcrumb container.

These were in a sidebar on the login page, but the parent template had dropped the sidebar block. Worked out a way to get the content displayed roughly the same as last year with just changes to the login template and very minimal site.less changes.
