Optimizing amenity usage in residential complexes : a web-based system for booking and managing shared facilities

Abstract

This thesis presents a web-based reservation system for managing shared apartment amenities such as laundry and sauna facilities. It replaces manual booking methods that often caused conflicts and limited access. The new system improves convenience and coordination by allowing real-time booking through a user-friendly calendar interface. Developed using React for the frontend and Firebase for authentication and real-time data management, the system disables past and reserved slots to prevent scheduling issues. Findings show that this web application improves the use and management of shared facilities, offering a practical solution for both residents and administrators.
