How it works
Code the frontend. Connect Arky as the backend.
Start with the frontend stack the project deserves, then connect only the Arky modules it needs. The Admin, API, SDK, and store email stay behind the custom experience.
- Define Booking Services and Resources
- Render live availability in the frontend
- Confirm bookings through checkout and the booking emails
