Hi

One way is to put JS events on the calendar that passes the cell and the description or other meta data the user enters. The event captures and then passes the data via Ajax to the backend where you can write the data to the db - maybe a custom booking table. Once the db write is successful you respond to the Ajax request with success status where your JS frontend set the Color or other ui attributes of your calendar.

This is a good learning opportunity; however you should consider one of the many WP calendar plugins that you could study their code, learn from it and move it along faster.

I hope this helps
