keenancrane/siggraph-papers-schedule

This project is a more usable version of the schedule for SIGGRAPH's Technical Papers program. SIGGRAPH is a major annual computer graphics conference, and this tool takes its official paper schedule and presents it in a friendlier format that visitors can browse directly at a hosted webpage. The README is short and mostly describes what the tool does rather than how it is built. It displays the papers in the order they appear during the Fast Forward session, a short preview talk format where each paper gets a brief time slot to summarize itself before the full conference sessions. The tool makes it easy for a visitor to select which papers they are interested in and share that selection with others, and it automatically flags when two chosen papers happen to be scheduled at the same time, so a visitor can catch scheduling conflicts before the conference starts. The repository also includes scripts intended to regenerate a page like this one in future years, pulling data from the official ACM pages that list the Technical Papers Program and the Fast Forward session, rather than requiring the schedule to be rebuilt by hand each year. Beyond this description, the README does not go into detail about installation steps, dependencies, or how the extraction scripts work internally. It is a small, focused tool aimed at people planning their SIGGRAPH conference schedule, and the primary way to use it is simply to visit the hosted page rather than run any code locally.
