High-Level Project Description:

MakersBnB specification

We would like a web application that allows users to list spaces they have available, and to hire spaces for the night.

Headline specifications

• Any signed-up user can list a new space.
• Users can list multiple spaces.
• Users should be able to name their space, provide a short description of the space, and a price per night.
• Users should be able to offer a range of dates where their space is available.
• Any signed-up user can request to hire any space for one night, and this should be approved by the user that owns that space.
• Nights for which a space has already been booked should not be available for users to book that space.
• Until a user has confirmed a booking request, that space can still be booked for that night.

Nice-to-haves

• Users should receive an email whenever one of the following happens:
• They sign up
• They create a space
• They update a space
• A user requests to book their space
• They confirm a request
• They request to book a space
• Their request to book a space is confirmed
• Their request to book a space is denied
• Users should receive a text message to a provided number whenever one of the following happens:
• A user requests to book their space
• Their request to book a space is confirmed
• Their request to book a space is denied
• A ‘chat’ functionality once a space has been booked, allowing users whose space-booking request has been confirmed to chat with the user that owns that space
• Basic payment implementation though Stripe.
