# Movie Browser App

## Instructions

1. Clone the repository to your local machine:

   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/pchandra191/GSIV23_Prabhat_Chandra.git

2. Install the project dependencies:

   cd movie-app
   npm install

3. Start the development server:

   npm start

4. Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000 to access the app.

This project is a movie search app built using React. It allows users to search for movies, view movie details, and load more movies. The app also includes Redux for state management.

• Search for movies by title.
• View movie details including title, rating, release date, runtime, director, cast, and description.
• Load more movies as you scroll down the page.
• Responsive design for various screen sizes.

1. React Components: The app is structured into modular components, promoting code reusability and maintainability.

2. Redux State Management: Redux is used to manage the application's state, ensuring a single source of truth and efficient data flow.

3. API Integration: Axios is used to make HTTP requests to the Movie Database API, fetching and displaying movie data.

4. React Router: React Router is used for handling routing and navigation between different views in the app.

If I had more time available, I would consider the following improvements:

1. Unit Tests: Implement unit tests for components and Redux actions/reducers using testing libraries like Jest and React Testing Library.

2. Error Handling: Enhance error handling by providing user-friendly error messages and handling network errors gracefully.

3. Pagination: Implement a pagination feature for better navigation through large lists of movies.

4. Performance Optimization: Optimize performance, especially when rendering large lists of movies, by employing memoization and virtualization techniques.

5. Progressive Web App (PWA): Convert the app into a PWA to enable offline access and improve the overall user experience.
