miniCal is an open-source PMS (Property Management System). It was originally designed for hotel software companies, but other businesses like car rental businesses can use it also.
We see hundreds of PMS companies developing the same features and integrations as everyone else, and we think it's a waste of resources. Our mission is to develop a single best technology that can perform better than most PMS companies' in-house developed products, and completely take the technical burden off of their shoulders.
miniCal documentation is available here minical.doc.

Explore the extension of miniCal on miniCal Marketplace.
The version is broken down into 4 points e.g 1.2.3.4 We use MAJOR.MINOR.FEATURE.PATCH to describe the version numbers.
A MAJOR is very rare, it would only be considered if the source was effectively re-written or a clean break was desired for other reasons. This increment would likely break most 3rd party modules.
A MINOR is when there are significant changes that affect core structures. This increment would likely break some 3rd party modules.
A FEATURE version is when new extensions or features are added (such as a payment gateway, shipping module, etc). Updating a feature version is at a low risk of breaking 3rd party modules.
A PATCH version is when a fix is added, it should be considered safe to update patch versions e.g 1.2.3.4 to 1.2.3.5
