movieTracker

Description

Movie tracker is a web application designed to allow the user to create a collection of their favorite films. Users can search films by title, browse them via a combination of genre, rating, year of release, and sort them via a series of parameters. Movie data is populated via The Movie Database API. Account handling is done via a local backend built in Express.

This project is a part of the Front End Engineering Program at the Turing School of Software and Design. You can find the specs for it here.
