Tech Event Support for Plone

Welcome to the documentation for Tech Event Support for Plone.

Tech Event Support for Plone helps you build a tech conference, symposium or seminar site. It has two parts that work together. The backend add-on, collective.techevent, adds the event, the schedule, the presenters, the venues and the sponsors to a Plone site. The Volto add-on, @plone-collective/volto-techevent, shows them to your visitors.

The documentation follows the Diátaxis framework. Start with the tutorial if you are new to the add-on, or go straight to the how-to guides if you already know it.
