The Challenge

Organizing MIT ADT University's Onam festival traditionally meant manual registrations, paper forms, and cash-only merchandise sales. This created long queues, tracking nightmares, and limited participation. The festival committee needed a modern solution that could handle hundreds of registrations while making the experience smooth and enjoyable.

02

The Solution

Built a beautiful, easy-to-use website where students could register for events like the Pookalam competition and Onasadya feast in just a few clicks. Added an online store for festival merchandise with a shopping cart that remembers items even if you close the browser. Automatic email confirmations kept everyone informed, and the responsive design worked perfectly on phones, tablets, and computers.

03

How It Works

The platform features a step-by-step registration process that guides users through event selection and payment. The shopping cart saves items automatically, so students can browse and buy at their convenience. Email notifications are sent instantly after registration or purchase. The entire system is built to be accessible to everyone, following web accessibility standards, and runs smoothly on cloud servers with automatic backups to protect all registration data.

04

Real-World Impact

Successfully managed 400+ event registrations across multiple Onam celebrations, completely eliminating manual paperwork. The online store generated ₹25,000 in merchandise revenue through 75 transactions. Students rated the experience 4.7 out of 5 stars, and participation increased by 40% compared to previous years. The platform maintained perfect uptime throughout the festival period, ensuring no one missed out on registering or shopping.
