Getting movie data from TMDB API and displaying it with React
I am a big movie fan and am just finding out how awesome API's are. To me they are a really nice way to get cool content/ data about lots of different subjects and give you the chance to play around with that data in your front-end.
The API provived by TMDB gives me the opportunity to upgrade my JavaScript / React / Css / SASS skills while keeping the movie-nerd in me happy!
Sounds like a win-win, right?
These are the things I want to practice /improve / try
- Lifting up state in React
- State & component lifecycle
- Improve my container / component stucture
- More DRY / Re-using functions
- Mapping through arrays & objects
- Promises / Await / Then
- Start with SASS
- Better structure / overview of CSS
- Responsive / use the whole screen on desktop
- Look into caching data for faster (re)loading
- API calls to backend?
