What organizers manage
- Sponsors: logos, tiers, and links
- FAQs: questions and answers shown to hackers and the public
- Public schedule: the event schedule, managed from the same place as the internal one
How the marketing site consumes it
The public marketing site is a separate application that renders this content by calling the public content API (/v1/public/schedule, /v1/public/sponsors, /v1/public/faq). The requests are authenticated with a shared API key and made server-side, so the key never reaches browsers.
This is the core of the relationship between Harp and the marketing site: the marketing site is a thin presentation layer you redesign every year, and Harp is the data layer behind it. See The marketing site for the full picture.
