Plataforma Semana da Computação: Gerenciamento de Eventos acadêmicos do CI, com verificação através de Geolocalização e automação de Certificados

Abstract

Since the early days of web applications, developers have sought improvements in developing new features for these softwares, generating a chain of evolution of the tools available in the market. However, applications that are not developed for specific use cases face the challenge of remaining competitive, especially when they involve more specific scenarios. In this report, the objective was to develop an event platform using the frameworks React (NextJS) and NodeJs (NestJS). Comparative examples were presented with existing platforms in the market, such as Even3, showing how the Semana da Computa¸c˜ao platform offers new verification features using geolocation and authentication through LocalStorage. This application is a web platform developed by 3 students from PET Computa¸c˜ao of the Computer Science Course at the Center of Informatics at UFPB (Abra˜ao Moreira, Aran Leite, and Lucas Garrafielo). Initially, security, inspection, and performance analyses were carried out on Even3, and seeing that there were needs to be addressed, the idea of creating an event management system, called Plataforma SDC, emerged. Subsequently, the development and production stages and sprints of the application were defined, ensuring that advanced authentication techniques were implemented to benefit the entire community. As a result, the platform not only increased credibility and transparency in event management but also facilitated the organization and verification of participant attendance.
