Create app with a model to store latest event data #3

Description

@estebistec

Action items:

  • Create model to keep latest meetup data, in case meetup is ever down or we exceed rate limit (seems unlikely, but I somehow just did it)
  • Model could mean Django ORM (SQL) or persistent redis data. TBD
  • Create model to override event photo with custom photo URL
  • Setup admin interface behind login so that data can be manually updated if need be, and the event photo overrides can be managed.
  • Add Django-style backend interface [1] that abstracts away the usage of the meetup API vs. model fallback. This should make our views resilient to any issues with meetup.com's availability or our rate limit.
