Welcome to the Bookify API documentation! This guide will help you understand and integrate with our scheduling and resource management API.

## Overview

Bookify is a powerful scheduling and resource management API that allows you to:
- Manage organizations and their resources
- Handle employee and asset scheduling
- Manage API keys for secure access
- Control user authentication and authorization

## Core Components

### Authentication

The API supports two authentication methods:
- **Firebase Authentication**: For user-based authentication using JWT tokens
- **API Keys**: For programmatic access to the API

### Organizations

Organizations are the top-level entities in Bookify. Each organization can have:
- Multiple users with different roles
- Employee resources
- Asset resources
- Custom API keys

### Resources

Bookify supports two types of resources:
- **Employee Resources**: For managing staff and their availability
- **Asset Resources**: For managing equipment, rooms, or other bookable assets

## Getting Started

### Authentication

All requests to the API must be authenticated. Use one of the following methods:

```typescript
// Using Firebase Authentication
headers: {
  'Authorization': 'Bearer your-firebase-token'
}

// Using API Key
headers: {
  'Authorization': 'your-api-key'
}
```
