Gartenparty 2025
Published:
Overview
In 2025, I developed a lightweight event website to simplify the organization of a garden party with 30+ guests.
The goal was to automate RSVPs, reduce manual coordination, and provide all essential details (location, time, notes) in one central place.
→ Live Website
→ View Source Code on GitHub
Unlike commercial website builders such as WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace, this site is completely free to host (via Netlify) and the entire source code is accessible at any time on GitHub — giving full control over customization and data.
Features
- RSVP form with structured fields, validation, and visual feedback
- Dual-language interface: English / German toggle
- Location & directions: Google Maps embedding + “Parking Info” section
- Responsive design with mobile-friendly navigation
- Deployment pipeline: GitHub → Netlify (auto-build on every commit)
Tech Stack
- Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript
- Hosting/CI: Netlify (auto-deploy from GitHub)
- Tools: VS Code, Git, GSAP (scroll animations), SweetAlert for dialogs
Architecture & Deployment
Code is hosted on GitHub, with Netlify set up to automatically build and deploy whenever changes are pushed to the main branch.
This ensures the site is always up-to-date within seconds.
