- #176 : Prepared this report.
In this project, I utilized the Movie Database API, which provides access to a wealth of movie-related data. This API allowed me to easily access and retrieve the information I needed for the project. For more detailed information about the API and its capabilities, please visit the official documentation.
The endpoint I created is as follows:
-
getPopularMovies- GET: This endpoint enables users to retrieve a list of the most popular movies of the day. The function accepts a page parameter, enabling pagination for easier navigation through the results. The response contains only the essential information about each movie, including the title, release date, rating, and poster URL. Using the user-friendly React-based frontend I've developed, users can easily view and explore this information at their convenience.

While working on this project, I encountered several new technologies and concepts that challenged me in different ways. Since I had no prior experience with Spring Boot, I had to learn it from scratch. Similarly, React was new to me, and I had to overcome some challenges while using it. Additionally, I had to familiarize myself with tools such as Postman and Docker, which were also new to me. Despite these challenges, I was able to successfully complete the project and gained valuable experience in using these technologies.
