Introduction

There are many, many resort management systems available, but they seem fall into two categories:

  1. On-premise, unconnected and very expensive.
  2. Cloud-based, canned systems with no offline-capability.

Resort Manager aims to provide a scalable, modular resort management system that is offline-first and works on any device.

Architecture This will be accomplished using progressive web technologies such as service-workers for the client, and a framework-less node.js/express backend. Data storage will be based on pouchdb on the client and Cloudant on the server side. The service will also provide a web client for ubiquitous web access.

While open-source, resort-manager is meant to be deployed in a subscription model, with a basic, free tier and add-ons that provide additional functionality.

The project will kick-off in January, 2019.
