Create an interface between the back-end and The Movie Database (TMDB) API to simplify queries to TMDB, known as the movieQueryInterface (MQI)
- Use
node-fetchsince all requests seem to be basic GET requests - With the simplicity of querying thanks to my MQI, it was very easy to implement pages for movies as well as actors.
Store the API key in a .env file for security.
No local database is needed since all the data needed is in TMDB.
The Bootstrap library was used to quickly build the application's UI.
