The event schedule on the home page is hardcoded in HTML

[pushpam2404]

Context

index.html contains the October schedule as a hand-written <table>. Changing a date means editing markup, and there is nothing stopping the table disagreeing with reality — it already listed an event under a name that had changed.

What to change

Files: index.html, a new data/events.json, a new script

Requirements:

• Move the schedule into data/events.json
• Render the table from it, following the pattern in js/glossary.js
• Keep the table rendered as a real <table> with a <caption> — do not lose the semantics
• The page must still be usable without JavaScript, so decide deliberately whether to keep a static fallback and say why in the pull request

Acceptance criteria

• The table renders from the JSON and looks unchanged
• Adding an event means editing only the JSON
• The table keeps its caption and header semantics
• The no-JavaScript behaviour is deliberate and explained
• The JSON parses

How to verify locally

python3 -m http.server 8000

Then open http://localhost:8000.

Difficulty

Intermediate. The no-JavaScript decision is the part worth thinking about.
