API

As explained, the booking widget just utilizes the API and gives a ready to use example. However, in many cases, that may not be enough and as you may want to better match your website design, integrate your own payment processor, use a different language and so on.
What usually would be enough is to open the widget page, copy all the source code in your own site and start editing the HTML / Javascript.
However, this still may not be sufficient for some of you, so here comes the direct API integration. If you are not a developer and you don’t have such on hand, please stick to the widget. The next would just confuse you unnecessary J
