Where could we go for help???

Of course by using the Alumni Network!!!

The problems

Actually we are usually not familiar with students in other grades, so it's difficult for us to contact the alumni of our own school, which prevents most students from getting some useful experience from the graduates.

The solution

Now I come up with the idea to build a platform for EMLyon Business School students to register their own information and search for alumni's information.

How to use and build the platform?

Register your information

The form below is designed for collecting your information.
Attention please! Here I will introduce you the method for registering the personal information.


You may be very interested in how to write a form like this and how to input the data into our database. Let's start now!
First let's start by designing a wonderful form!

To design a wonderful form, the first thing we need to do is to get a Skeleton-styled form from website getskeleton)and apply it in a Glitch page. The picture here shows you how I include the link of code in the header of my html document, that way:

Then to create a form following the standard, we need to understand a little bit about the knowledge of Skeleton grid:

The structure I chose is six columns and six columns, you could also choose other types, it depends on your preference. Then I create several boxes for registering information.

After creating your own form, you need to write it to your database by linking it to your firebase. Once you have registered and created your Realtime Database, you can link it to your web page by including in script tags at the end of your html document its information, which should look like this:

Since we have intergrated successfully the Firebase Realtime Database, now I want to encourage you to try using the following method for registering your information in the built database.

Click the "Fill the form" button to jump to the form page:

Here I'd like to use my own information for example.

After click on the "submit" button, we add one new data on the firebase database.

I'm so excited to tell you that you have mastered how to write your information in our EMLyon Business School Alumni Network!! Congratulations!!!

Search for alumni information

To find the alumni information, you need to use the "glitch" and "firebase".

The first step is to check the database we have of EMLyon Business School alumni. Here we use Firebase for graduates' data.
Our data base is like this:

Here we register the important information of alumni about Gender, Career Field, Email, Program, Name and Workplace.
Now we can querry for alumni information we want. Here we have two examples of how to querry a data, based on Gitch and using our database. The first example is used for searching alumni who work in China, the second example is a more complicated one used for searching female alumni with more information about which program they are , about which field they work in and about their email adress:

By wirting different code in giltch, you can now easily find the useful alumni information you want now!

Welcome to make suggestions about improvements!!
