Coworking Portal Development
A coworking portal is an online booking system for workspaces, meeting rooms and offices, with membership management and access control integration. Key functions: transparent availability and convenient self-service for members.
Space Structure and Products
Types of workspaces:
- Hot desk — any available seat for a day
- Fixed desk — dedicated seat by subscription
- Office — private room for team
- Meeting room — hourly rental
Each type has its own booking rules, minimum period, and pricing.
