Inspiration

As students, we saw how difficult it is to find a good hostel. Most people have to visit places physically or depend on others. Hostel owners also struggle with managing bookings and complaints, so we wanted to build a simple solution for both.

What it does

Hostellify is a platform that helps students find and book hostels بسهولة. It also allows them to submit complaints. Hostel owners can manage bookings and handle complaints in one place.

How we built it

We built Hostellify using HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and JavaScript for the frontend, and PHP with MySQL for the backend. Our goal was to keep everything simple and user-friendly.

Challenges we ran into

We faced issues while connecting frontend and backend. Managing bookings without errors and designing a simple complaint system were also challenging.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We successfully built a working full-stack project that solves a real problem. The booking system and complaint feature are fully functional.

What we learned

We learned how to work as a team, build a full-stack application, and handle real-world problems like booking systems and user management.

What's next for Hostellify

We plan to add online payments, reviews, and location-based search to improve the platform.

I worked as the Database Designer for this project. I designed and structured the MySQL database, including tables, relationships, and queries to ensure efficient data storage and retrieval. I also helped in integrating the database with the backend to support features like hostel listings, user applications, and complaint management. My focus was on maintaining data consistency, performance, and reliability of the system.

I worked as the Frontend Developer and Tester for this project. I designed and built the user interfaces for three dashboards — the Admin Dashboard, Hostel Owner Dashboard, and User Dashboard — ensuring each had a clean, intuitive, and responsive layout suited to its role. I also handled testing across all three dashboards to identify bugs and verify that every feature worked correctly. My focus was on delivering a polished front-end experience and ensuring the overall system functioned reliably before submission.
