Details

The idea is quite simple, users craft a list of their favorite twenty films. Users follow other users to keep up with their lists. Users have access to most of the film data through the Open Movie Database API, however, users can also add new films and they will be availible to add to lists.

Technology

This is a Backbone.js app writen in CoffeScript and built on a Rails Api. The search capabilities were build using Ajax requests to various third party Apis. For testing I used rspec and capybara. For styling and UI, I used Skeleton, Sass, JQuery, and JQuery Ui. Other technologies used include Redis cacheing, and OAuth login through Facebook.
