Hello everyone.

This semester at uni I'm taking a course which requires me and my group to create a complete software project. Out of the available topics we chose to make an airline ticket booking app, much like skyscanner.com. It is my responsibility to handle the majority of the coding aspect of the project, so I would like your advice.

I would like your thoughts and recommendations on what frameworks/languages/technologies you recommend we use to implement the project. I would like to avoid anything complicated that will take a long time to learn, as I only have a limited number of weeks to deliver. However we do need to be able to have a decent looking frontend, a backend that will allow users to login either as passengers or administrators (them being the ones who manage flights and handle passenger accounts etc.), and passengers should be able to at the very least input a departure city and time, and arrival city and time and get a list of available flights back (the flights don't need to be real-world flights, we can generate that data to simulate the app).

I've checked out pythons flask, but (correct me if I'm wrong) while simple it seems too much so. I would need to handle user authentication, creating and connecting any databases etc. all manually from pretty much scratch. I'm interested in finding that middle ground of simple enough to get up and running with quickly, while not so simple where I need to learn 1000 other things just to get a prototype up and running.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Edit: I asked my professor for advice and as he suggested I decided to go with bootstrap and sqlite. Im still open on suggestions to do the authentications though :)
