Absolute Cinema Ticketing
I taught myself PHP and MySQL to build this one. It books cinema tickets, and the interesting problem was stopping double bookings and showtime conflicts, so it has a full admin side for managing movies, screens and schedules.
Overview
A cinema ticket booking system with a full admin side for managing movies, screens and schedules. The interesting problem was never the booking form — it was stopping double bookings and showtime conflicts. I taught myself PHP and MySQL to build it.

Lessons learned
- Teaching myself a stack
PHP and MySQL were both new to me when this started. It is where the backend work began.
- Booking conflicts
The hard part was preventing double bookings and showtime clashes — two people reaching for the same seat is a data problem, not a UI one.
