As mentioned previously, if you want to be able to maintain and eventually develop your hotel in the future, you will benefit a lot from having done it youself. Can't comment on Epichosts as I have no knowledge regarding this.
You first get yourself a VPS - most tutorials you'll find on here will mention Windows Server with IIS but you can also get a Linux based VPS and run your http server via Nginx. There you'll install the prerequisites for the CMS/emu to run (PHP/Node, JRE, MySQL) as well as the CMS/emu just like...
You'll need to specify what you need help with. You can't expect people to provide help with the entire process of setting up a retro as this has already been posted as replies, posts and tutorials, this is if you are not willing to pay someone to set one up least.
I'd suggest you to try set it...
React is a frontend library, you're getting things mixed up. You need to figure out what you actually want to achieve with this - if you're in it for the sake of just doing the frontend, learning React (which is my my preferred with TypeScript) or another JS frontend library would be a very good...
OS:
Windows 10 - for C#/WPF (education)
MacOS - MacBook Pro when not working from home
Ubuntu 20.04
Editor/IDE:
WebStorm (w/ vim keybindings) - had to move to it because VSCode's eslint feature had poor support for mono repos.

You should really do some research and not even think about getting custom pixel art before you've got the basics set. Your spacing is too wild and makes it very confusing to grasp you are even looking at. You are inconsistent in a lot of places where some of the boxes have a rounded edge and...
1. Navigation at the top needs some work in my opinion, I think it's too split up.
2. Experiment with different font colors and sizes in your boxes to create dynamics between important and not-so-important text pieces (eg. article title vs article teaser).
3. Something that highlights your...
A bit messy and hard to comprehend. Top left logo is barely readable with the yellow font mixed in and a lot of the colors are clashing a lot. Considering it's a Facebook cover pic, why is there FB, Discord and Youtube icons in the middle?
Make a PHP page that will return the amount of online users.
<?php
$connection = new mysqli("db_host", "db_user", "db_password", "db_name");
$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users WHERE online='1'";
$result = $connection->query($sql);
echo $result;
$connection->close();
Save it as online.php or...
You make a polling function that sends an ajax requests that queries the current online users every 30-60 seconds. I think Cosmic has it - you can look how it's done there. What CMS are you using?
He won't be able to do anything that you can't, 76% problem is literally the most documented problem in the whole retro community, and the amount of help that you've gotten on this thread is already more than enough. What CMS are you using?
Excited to see how this turns out. Already looking good. I find the design a bit monotonous and plane though I get that you are still in development. Good luck buddy;):up:
