For our first paired project in Mod3 at Turing, we were assigned to create something like Rotten Tomatoes. An application that would allow the user to see all the movies when they visit the page. It allows them to search for a movie, they can click on the poster of the movie to be directed to the details page. The details page allowed the user to see the run time of a movie, the budget, an overview, the revenue, and the genre. They also had the ability to see clips and videos from Youtube.
Understand React’s key concepts such as components, state, props, and the component lifecycle. Use cypress to verify that components render correctly and respond to user interactions. Use a routing library like react-router-dom to manage navigation in your React application.
Wins:
- We wanted to create a carousel for the landing page of our application, we did research and found a couple that looked great. But instead of installing a package to get a carousel, we created one.
- Creating a better way to display the movie information in-front of the movie poster.
Challenges:
- We both agree cypress testing can be challenging, It was a rough start but we started to get a hand on it as we went on.
