Looks like its an app to manage access to machines and booking time for fabrication labs or maker spaces.
An example of a maker space I've been to for context: https://ents.ca/

@atrilahiji thanks, that makes more sense, but who wrote their tag line? what does "third place" mean?
I'm very familiar with hacker spaces. One of the first in the world was here, called the Super Happy Dev House, later Hacker Dojo, decades ago.

People sometimes refer to Third spaces, too, which basically means the same thing.

@yusf nice. Although I must've seen it before because I'd already starred it!
Guess we should probably wishlist https://github.com/sleede/openlab-projects too

Wow, I have never heard of this before. Thanks!
Too bad everything became first spaces

@jdaviescoates Though fablabs are a nice thing I actually came across it looking for room booking systems, which happens to be a feature in this software. So although it's written with fablabs in mind I imagine it can be repurposed for managing various kinds of collective spaces.

@yusf I knew I'd seen some others so I went looking. I didn't find what I was looking for, but found these which look OK:
