The developer documentation is for coders who want to learn how to extend the plugin with custom fields, notifications, integrations and more.
If you’re not a coder, you’re probably looking for the User Guide.
Restaurant Reservations is packed with hooks to make it extraordinarily extensible. But the documentation is not yet complete.
When it is, it will be a handy reference for every hook, as well as the place to find best practices for extending the plugin to ensure future compatibility.
Until then, I’ll list are a bunch of resources you may find useful. If you’ve got a question, post on the support forums or the GitHub repository.
