Lengthy conference descriptions

@nikhita peoples again commit with some large descriptions :(

Summits?

can we add summits too?

Nullcon - Goa , March 2020

Add Nullcon security conference.
Link: https://nullcon.net/website/

Add a website for displaying conferences

This has been discussed in #60 before but I want to start a fresh issue since this is a bit nuanced and needs a design first.

@tanvibhakta pointed to https://androidstudygroup.github.io/conferences/ in https://twitter.com/padawanjack/status/1065874671600656384 and I like the idea of showing which conferences have CFPs currently open. To incorporate this, we need some changes in how we structure the conferences right now.

If you have ideas about what details should be shown in the website, add a comment to this issue. Please don't create a PR right now.

I'll work on an initial design and post it here. If I end up creating a PR for it, I'll only merge it by lazy consensus so that the community has a say in it. :)

Himalaya Crypto Summit

| Himalaya Crypto Summit 2018 | 25th & 26th May | Taj Apollo Bunder Mumbai | Blockchain Summit

Add Pydata conf in Delhi 2019

Add PyData Delhi-2019 conference details and call for speakers.

Remove conferences that do not support CFPs

Many conferences in this list are pretty "commercial" or non community-focussed. I don't have a good definition for what is community-focussed right now but I'm going to draw the line for whether the conference allows CFPs to err on the side of inclusion.

So, conferences which don't have CFPs should be removed from the list (for all years - 2018, 2017 and 2016).

GopherCon India listed under wrong year.

The GopherCon India is listed under the year 2016, Feb, but it rather should have been under the year 2017, Feb.

Add Serverless Summit

Website: http://inserverless.com/

This is a simple addition. Can be a good first PR. 😉 Happy to provide any help!

Watch "Ankur Warikoo on Shark Tank India, Love, Crypto Tax & Books | Ft. @warikoo" on YouTube

CYPHER Analytics India Summit 2018

| CYPHER Analytics India Summit 2018 | 26th to 28th September | Hotel Radisson Blu Bangalore India | Analytics Summit

Remove conferences that don't support CoCs

It would be useful to have a column showing whether the conference has a code of conduct displayed on the front page.

It probably makes more sense to just add it to 2019 conferences.

Add scholarship/price details

Like most of the conference is paid and very less are free.
It just one thought of mine if you could also add one more column for a range of pricing.
Second: Also the order should be calendar date-wise.

Because after all see if the tickets price is very high then most of them cancel the plan.
So the idea is here if some can get a fair idea about price before it would save time to know about it and then cancel the plan due to pricing.

GHCI is not included in the list.

GHCI is not included in the list. I would like to take up this issue.

Serve a webpage along with README

Hey Nikitha,

Thought to have a static live webpage, than a READ.ME file. So, I just forked your repo and enabled github-pages on my repo, selected timeline theme and tweaked your READ.ME to include past year details automatically in the main index.html, which will get rendered automatically from master branch.

You can view the generated live page here : https://kspviswa.github.io/tech-conferences-india/ .

Have a look & let me know if you want a PR from me.
