Background
Born out of frustration with existing event listing tools that were either too generic or too expensive, Events Tracker was designed from the ground up to meet the specific needs of DIY event promoters in Pittsburgh. It grew directly from years of experience promoting FUZZ, LAZERCRUNK, and other events.

Built with Laravel and PHP on a Linux server, MySQL backend, Bootstrap front-end. Fully open source on GitHub.
