Inspiration
We were inspired by the amount of new movies coming out and how engaged of a community the film industry has.
What it does
It is a movie search system where you can keep track of movies you enjoyed and look up movies you want to watch in the future.
How we built it
We used VSCode and React to create the application. We made use of themoviedb which provides an API key and access to a dataset of movies.
Challenges we ran into
We had a huge challenge learning React since it was our first time using it. However, once we watched several videos on the basics of React, we were able to pick up on it fast and utilize it to create out project.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud of our UI and ability to pick up new skills so quickly. This being our very first time making a project entirely by ourselves, every single step was a huge learning curve.
What we learned
We learned how to use React and how APIs work.
What's next for Storyteller
We can make a "To watch" page where users can also save movies they would like to watch in the future. Hopefully it can be expanded to include TV shows as well.
