Hello Roomify team!

It was great meeting you at DrupalconLA. Of course I'm posting this months later but as I mentioned, I propose a few bulk calendar enhancements to improve Roomily's accessibility for backend admins and its competitiveness:

  1. Instead of a row per unit with individual date rows, use one row at the top (screenshot attached). I'm able to do this with a bit of dirty jQuery to hide all day-of-the-week rows after the first.
  2. Drag and drop reservations. The vast majority of off-the-shelf software (web-based and native apps) that I tested have this functionality and it's expected when the user can drag to select dates. I know that fullcalendar can do it but I can't figure out how to translate the draggable reservations to updating the date fields on the reservation

I am very optimistic about Roomily and any forks to create SaaS Drupal products. At the end of the day, what most decision makers compare Roomily to is what they know or what they've seen so it should be at least as usable as those products. Then the advantages of going open-source/Drupal/web-based shine.

A simple example is the simplification of "checking in" and "checking out" clients. I created two Rules links that do this and styled it so that administrators can do the task in one click (image attached).
