Full-Stack Development Project completed as part of The Hacking Project (THP) Full-Stack Developer Bootcamp validation.
CinéRoom is a modern Ruby on Rails 8.0 platform that transforms independent film viewing into exclusive experiences. The application allows users to discover and book private film screenings in unique, unconventional venues (art galleries, rooftops, private mansions) with opportunities to meet the film's creative team.
The concept addresses the need for a premium alternative to traditional cinema by creating immersive events around independent films. Users can book limited seats for private premieres, meet the team (directors, actors, technical crew), and enjoy a unique evening experience.
