:bolt: Reshav's API :bolt:

Getting you started with some resources: Let's make an API! https://gist.github.com/andrewhubbs/74084457bf74f136605d0346f932c85b This is just a starter project, so feel free to add to it as you see fit, but the core components are:

Movie API

An API in Django that hides the API_KEY and makes requests to the movie API An SPA (single-page app) in React that requests information from the API, and:

Renders a list or grid of movies

Allows searching (new API request) and filtering for movies

Allows clicking on a Movie to see a more detailed view

Some additional extensions that are germane to what we do here at Narmi:

Add a caching layer to your app for requests to the Movie API (we do this for all our banking transactions!)

Break out your frontend into Container and Presentational Components using React (we use this pattern in all our new apps)

Use styled-components to style your React components (we will be using this when working on the design_system!)

Spin up Storybook to view your React components (we use this in the design_system as well!)

Investigate advanced Python collections for use in the API (I think you had mentioned counter!)

That should be a good bit to get you started on the right foot here! I've created a blank repo for you here: https://github.com/fkotsian/reshav_api

Feel free to clone that and let me know when you've got a PR up (as big or small as you like), and I'll take a look! It's a bit different than how we'll work on the team, but my general principles are: Each PR should represent a feature Refactor inside your PRs ('be a good citizen') Add tests and practice TDD if you like!
