+# About this project
+
+This is the first prototype of [YOTA](https://github.com/MatejaMaric/yota-laravel) reservation system,
+made in pure PHP, and it uses MariaDB.
+
+**It is a great example of how things should NOT be done.**
+
+It showcases benefits of using a framework and concepts like:
+
+- Routing
+- Models, Views, Controllers
+- Templating
+- Object-relational mapping
+- Database migrations
+
+You can of course implement all this by yourself using object-oriented PHP.
+But there is little reason to do that since you can use a framework like Laravel that does all that and more, better.
