A Deep clone of the airbnb.com

AirBnB_clone

Making a clone of the airbnb.com application.

---

The aim of ths project is to create a clone of the Airbnb web application. Front-end clone as well as backend model clone.

---

Goals

• A command interpreter to manipulate data without a visual interface, like in a Shell (perfect for development and debugging)
• A website (the front-end) that shows the final product to everybody: static and dynamic
• A database or files that store data (data = objects)
• An API that provides a communication interface between the front-end and your data (retrieve, create, delete, update them)

---

The console

• create your data model
• manage (create, update, destroy, etc) objects via a console / command interpreter
• store and persist objects to a file (JSON file)

For the backend interface of this application, you can interact with the application from the built python shell console.

entry point - console.py

run - ./console.py or python3 console.py
