This system is designed for booking rooms at a small motel with a total of 25 rooms. The motel must have at least three different room types, such as single rooms, double rooms, and junior suites. Each room type must have a limit on the number of occupants (adults and children). This project requires an understanding of variables, functions, arrays, and other fundamental PHP concepts, as well as user interface design.

Users must be able to register as either guests or administrators. An administrator should be able to name and describe rooms and room types, as well as make certain rooms unavailable for specific periods. A guest should be able to search for check-in and check-out dates and specify the number of adults and children staying. For a more advanced system, guests can enter preferences for whether the room should be on a higher or lower floor or near an elevator. Additionally, a loyalty program can be implemented, allowing guests to view their stay history, retrieve receipts, and save preferences.

The project requires careful consideration of what guests (both frequent and occasional) and motel owners would appreciate in such a system. Prioritizing these features and implementing as many as possible through good programming practices is essential.

This year marks the beginning of an exciting chapter in my career journey as I start my internship at Swipload Technologies AS. Being one of the few students selected to join their innovative team is both an honor and a thrilling opportunity.

During this internship, I will be diving deep into the world of data technology, working on real-world projects that challenge and enhance my skills. From data analysis to software development, I am eager to contribute to the team and learn from experienced professionals in the field.

During my third semester at the University of Agder, I participated in a challenging programming project from Nøsted &. Our task was to create an information system for the maintenance of winches. We designed a model for filling out service forms that employees or mechanics could complete, as well as checklists that needed to be ticked off.

All the form information was stored in a database using MariaDB. With this data, we were able to set up a service order overview. This allowed us to go back to the order, view the information added, and make changes as needed.

The project was developed using .NET & C#, which required us to become familiar with these technologies. This provided us with valuable experience in using powerful tools for web development.

Additionally, we embraced the Azure DevOps methodology to optimize our human resources across various areas of the information system. We conducted daily Scrum stand-ups to keep everyone aligned and utilized the Azure DevOps Kanban board to efficiently track our progress and manage tasks.

I'm also happy to share that I got an A during this project. The images below provide a glimpse into the user interface of our application. They showcase the service form and checklist features, as well as the service order overview. Our goal was to create a user-friendly interface that made the maintenance process more efficient and manageable.
