title: Room Reservation System - Ideas (non technical)
body: <p>Need suggestions on room reservation system. Posting it as I couldn't find a similar question here in SO.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Question:</strong> Can I use wordpress and create my own plugin using php/mysql for a very simple and straight-forward room reservation system (4 page workflow)? If not what are the possibilites, Please suggest.</p>
  
  <p>If the post is not in the right forum, please feel free to close it or re-direct me.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Background:</strong> I work part time for a non profit organization (I dont get paid, it's just a service to the community during my free time). They own a small property with about 20-30 rooms onsite and manage their room reservations, manually with Google drive.</p>
  
  <p>I've suggested them to build an online portal for reservation. This is a service project, to enhance my technical resume as well as help someone. </p>
  
  <p><strong>My technical abilities</strong> - HTML, CSS, VB, SQL, PL-sQL (A long time ago) and I'm an automation tester so very good with programming skills.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Project deadline</strong> -  4 to 6 months. (I'd be spending about 15 hours/week)</p>
  
  <p>PS: If this is beyond my capabilities I will be asking them to outsource. </p>
