Project goals
The apartment owner wanted to have a website for his tourist rental and set the following requirements:
- Allow potential guests to see the apartment with presentation pages that included pictures
- Allow guests to book their stay through a professional reservation system that shows apartment availability in real time
- Keep the availability calendar in sync with third-party specialized portals
The website was meant to be very simple with a couple of pages to present the apartment, the booking system, and a contact page.
The most complex feature would have been the booking system, integrated with external services.
In the next section, we’ll see why Joomla was selected to create the website.
