Hey guys I have a question for people more experienced than I am. Not sure if this is the right forum for this.

I want to build a webpage that allows people to book hotel accommodations. I'll be connecting to the Booking.com API for this, and their API supports Java, PHP, Python and Restful API.
I have no prior coding knowledge.

Which language gives me the easiest path to building this? Is there anything like a no-code solution to this?

I asked Hasan this in an email and he replied saying I should ask in the forum, but also suggested I look at something called Bubble.

 
Cheers

@jibsldx if you use a WordPress site then you can use either PHP or Python to do this. Python would be easier to learn for someone new to programming. I suggest you begin by watching Hasan's courses.

There are some WordPress plugins for travel booking, but I haven't tried them.

Check here: WP Travel – Best Travel Booking WordPress Plugin, Tour Management Engine – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org

And maybe you can search for similar plugins and see if there is something that fits you.

The other no-code approach is using no-code tools like Bubble and others to connect with APIs. But there will be a learning curve here on how to use No Code tools. And of course, it is not free 🙂

The third approach is to code it yourself using any language you want as soon as there is an API.

@admin This WPTravel plugin seems interesting. It seems to have a  REST API module which I think will work well with Booking.com's API. Rather than go for a no-code solution, or coding it myself, maybe it's easier to just use this WP Plugin. My plan was to have a blog to support the booking process either way.
