LaPendery

LaPendery (originally CFrance) is a website for the vacation apartment of my grandparents. I built a site for them and added ‘DirectEdit’, a way so that they can edit text and images without leaving the site and without loading a heavy site builder.

A custom, lightweight full-stack website for my grandmother’s vacation rental property (gîte) in France, designed to showcase the house, manage bookings, and handle inquiries cleanly. It features DirectEdit, an in-browser admin tool I built that lets her easily update texts, photos, and availability directly on the page without touching any code or complex backend dashboards.

What I learned:

I learned how to build a dead-simple, client-friendly editing experience (DirectEdit) on top of a lightweight backend, handle smooth client-side state updates, and optimize high-res image galleries for fast loading times.

I built a clean, lightweight website for my grandparents’ vacation rental gîte in France to replace heavy site builders.

What I got done:
Wrote the full frontend with responsive layouts, an image carousel, and contact forms. Hooked up PocketBase as the backend for content storage and auth.
Built DirectEdit, an inline CMS mode so my grandparents can just log in and edit text directly on the page instead of dealing with an admin panel. Deployed the frontend and PocketBase instance behind Caddy.
