Flicks is a movies app using the The Movie Database API.
Time spent: 18 hours spent in total
The following required functionality is completed:
- User can view a list of movies currently playing in theaters. Poster images load asynchronously.
- User can view movie details by tapping on a cell.
- User sees loading state while waiting for the API.
- User sees an error message when there is a network error.
- User can pull to refresh the movie list.
The following optional features are implemented:
- Add a tab bar for Now Playing and Top Rated movies.
- Implement segmented control to switch between list view and grid view.
- Add a search bar.
- Customize the highlight and selection effect of the cell.
- Customize the navigation bar.
The following additional features are implemented:
- Polish the UI by adding gradient layers.
- Add infinite scrolling.
- Add tab for favorite movies (according to hardcoded account ID. Login VC to be added later).
- Add specific movie details like rating, release date, and runtime (which required another data request).
