A web app for managing event scheduling — attendees can propose sessions, vote on them, and view the final schedule. Built with Next.js and SQLite.
The name is a tongue-in-cheek reference to Schelling points — focal points that people naturally converge on without explicit coordination. SchellingBoard is the ironic opposite: a tool that enables explicit coordination. Attendees propose sessions and vote, creating a concrete consensus that wouldn't emerge on its own.
This is a public open-source fork of rachelweinberg12/scheduling-app. Rachel Weinberg, the original author, does not wish to maintain a public open-source project herself but agreed to this fork serving that role. See LICENSING_HISTORY.md for details.
- Session proposals — attendees submit and browse session ideas
- Voting — attendees express interest (interested / maybe / skip) before the schedule is set
- Scheduling board — drag sessions onto a time/location grid
- Event phases — proposal, voting, and scheduling phases with configurable date ranges
- Multi-event support — host multiple events from one deployment
- Kiosk mode — append
?kiosk=1to a schedule URL for large screens at the venue: a red line marks the current time, the schedule auto-scrolls to it and refreshes periodically, and the screen is kept awake. The schedule stays fully interactive. Combine withlocfilters (e.g.?kiosk=1&loc=Main+Hall) to show only some rooms. - Site password protection — optional single-password gate for the whole app
