Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Seeing a list of available resources (not only rooms) is a requirement we have.

Describe the solution you'd like

The current button "Room availability" only supports rooms instead of all types of resources that can be created with the documented OCC commands. We would like to see the availability of all resources instead.

Describe alternatives you've considered

We considered to reserve resources with calendar entries that are visible for all users. Hence, the respective user would mention the reserved resource in the event title. However, this approach does not scale for us. We would prefer to use this app's resource management for our use case.

Additional context

We would like to use the resources to book/reserve devices like lasercutters or 3d printers in a workshop.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the “Room availability” feature and the documented OCC commands for resource creation, then trace how resource types are filtered and represented. Done means availability can be viewed for devices such as lasercutters and 3D printers as well as rooms, with the relevant behavior covered by tests.
