Availability overview of a room or resource
Feature Request
~~When I try to book a room or resource for my meeting, Calendar currently doesn't show me the availability until I pick one of the search results and open the free/busy view. In a scenario where books are booked densely, you'll need a lot of trial and error until you find one that is available for you.~~ Availability status is checked since https://github.com/nextcloud/calendar/pull/3486, so only available options are shown.
As a user I would like to see the availability of a particular room or resource.
Implementation
Provide some sort of overview page that shows a calendar view for a resource with the free/busy slots
Work packages
- [ ] Overview for rooms and resources
- [ ] User manual documentation

A quick and dirty workaround for those who can't wait the development of this feature is to manually add a (or several) record(s) in the table oc_dav_shares, using the calendar id of the resource in the resourceid field. You can share it to a nextcloud user or via a weblink.
@st3iny @GretaD do you need mockups for this and if so, how urgently? Just asking cause from our side this is at medium priority so it might get overlooked over high prio items, especially if there are no clear requirements.
cc @nimishavijay if you have already been talking about this. :)

it depends :) right now it looks like this: https://github.com/nextcloud/calendar/pull/5961#issuecomment-2158622839
so similar to free/busy for the attendees. If you have a different view on how it should look like, then it would be nice to have the mockups until the end of the month or first week of july. So i can work on the new design and deliver within the deadline.
