flix_clone is a movies app using the The Movie Database API.
Time spent: 4-5 hours spent in total
The following required user stories are complete:
- User sees app icon in home screen and styled launch screen (+1pt)
- User can scroll through a list of movies currently playing in theaters from The Movie DB API (+5pt)
- User can "Pull to refresh" the movie list (+2pt)
- User sees a loading state while waiting for the movies to load (+2pt)
The following optional user stories are implemented:
- User sees an alert when there's a networking error (+1pt)
- User can search for a movie (+3pt)
- While poster is being fetched, user see's a placeholder image (+1pt)
- User sees image transition for images coming from network, not when it is loaded from cache (+1pt)
- Customize the selection effect of the cell (+1pt)
- For the large poster, load the low resolution image first and then switch to the high resolution image when complete (+2pt)
The following additional user stories are implemented: -[x] Alert has buttons with functionality to try refresh and fix the problem
- List anything else that you can get done to improve the app functionality! (+1-3pts) If there was a settings page, so the user could have more control. Change the coloring of the app/text. Any more of the optionals of course.
Please list two areas of the assignment you'd like to discuss further with your peers during the next class (examples include better ways to implement something, how to extend your app in certain ways, etc):
- Understanding of the swift language to implement more features. Not exactly sure what happened during the videos.
- How this app can be more social. Is there a way for the user to interact with the API for ratings and such.
Here's a walkthrough of implemented user stories:
App Icon and Styled Launch Screen:
Scroll Through Latest Movies:
Pull to Refresh:
Loading State While Waiting for Movies to Load:
User sees alert when there's a network error and is able to press try again to fix the issue:

Describe any challenges encountered while building the app. It's difficult understanding what every part of the code is doing, but I assume that this will be less of a problem as I deal with more SWIFT code.
