Movie Generator - https://treytiller.github.io/movie-generator/

Thinkful API HACK Capstone project (tasteDive, OmDb API)

The purpose of this app is to provide the user with a generated list of movies to watch. The list generates based on what movie title the user searches for and relating titles with similar characteristics.

Landing Page

The user sees a short description and is introduced to site personality. 
User is able to fill out form and start application

Results

User sees the top suggestions related to their movie and certain information 
break points were chosen based on design and mobile will show less than large format displays

Suggestions

If the API can't find a film they typed in a second chance to input is given and some movie suggestions 

High Level User Stories:

— User should be able to easily enter a movie title
— User should be able to make multiple searches with only current results displaying
— User should be able to see information about the film
— User needs to be able to limit the number of results

Technologies Used:

HTML/CSS/JavaScript/jQuery
	This project mostly runs off of JavaScript/ jQuery. The initial set up has a simple html markdown
	and css styling with mobile responsive breakpoints. During the testing phase I used Postman to 
	run request on the APIs I was planning to use.
