A simple quote drove us during designing - “Make it simple yet elegant”. The website had to be brusque, easy to navigate, and utmost important thing was make it completely compatible with different screen sizes to support present trend of increasing internet access from mobile devices.

We took time in deciding the colour scheme to make it eyesome and uniform. We chose to have a navigation bar present at the top of each page so that it was easy for the user to understand the components of website The website has:

1.      Home page – Contains a latest news feed, upcoming events section, social network handles, event calendar and a pleasing stream of recent events photographs.

2.      Team – It contains details of core, coders, web, media, sponsorship committees

3.      Join Us – It allows personages who are keen on joining Amity ACM Student Chapter to know about us and perks of being in ACM with an elaborated guide for the process of enrolling to be an AASC member.

Hard work is done by every single one of our members to make our chapter the best among all, and we chose the website to be the platform which gracefully acknowledges that. We use the website to inform people not only about the achievements of our chapter, but also the achievements of our members separately, because we believe hard work deserves praise.

With the increase in our total members to a record breaking 1700, and paid members to a 100 members we have chosen to further expand the website to increase the functionality, as is being dictated by the demand. We want to add a news feed section which a student can access information about not only the events which are taking place, but also other necessary details regarding placement/internship opportunities and student information. Also we plan on starting a chat service where members can ask direct questions to any one or more of our senior members, and if deemed worthy, the details of which will be publicly shared as a very helpful Q&A section. However extensive testing is required to be done before these two services goes live.
