Forked from https://github.com/clupai8o0/nmmun. This repo is for 2024-2025 NMMUN. So much work was put into this website by @cupai8o0 and team. It was obvious to carry it forward to the next batch.❤️💯

NMMUN

Explore the world of diplomacy and global affairs with the New Millennium Model United Nations Conference. Engage in debates, draft resolutions, and broaden your horizons. Join us for an educational journey that shapes future leaders. This is a web project for NMMUN, built using Next.js to be aesthetically pleasing, smooth, and SEO friendly. Targeted towards the NMMUN participants, any alterations are to be made only by the IT team of that year's NMMUN after being approved by the Organizing Committee and Design Team.

About this Project

This project is built using Next.js. Though experience in Next.js isn't required as React.js (or JavaScript) knowledge should be enough to make basic changes. Big changes on the other hand, like adding new pages and routes requires experience in Next.js. In that situation, I would recommend this tutorial. If you lack experience in React.js as well watch this tutorial.

Deployment

The deployment and domain are entirely up to you. You can either:

1. Deploy the project independently on Vercel.
2. Contribute changes to this project.

Domain is on NameCheap, you need only contact the last Head of IT (check contact information) and gain domain access from them (it needs renewal every September 17th).

Contributing

The NMMUN project source code is built in such a way that you shouldn't have to make any alterations in the components and layouts. The only alterations required should be in the /lib/config.ts file and the individual page styling anc content. I would recommend not altering components and layouts code as much to avoid errors, but if big changes are made please update the README.md and comment your changes when contributing.
