I'm building this simple React Redux application as a way of learning and understanding how React and Redux work. As I'm a bit of a nerd I thought building something about superheroes is a fun way to learn these new cool skills.

The whole idea behind the whole app is to combine superhero comics and their related movie counterparts and fuse them together into a unique superhero encyclopedia application.

Think of it as combining a superhero IMDB with a superhero wikipedia.

In the initial phase I'll only be building a simplified version of a Marvel Superheroes website using the external Marvel API http://developer.marvel.com/

Please note

Marvel permits only 3000 API calls to the Marvel Comics API in a day.

The second phase will include the superhero IMDB.

npm install
npm start
open http://localhost:3000

React
Redux
ReactRedux
ReactRouter
ReduxThunk
ReactDom

Through the use of Redux Thunk we return functions from the Action Creators which make API calls to retrieve data from Marvel's API.

Example:

Modified version of react-transform-boilerplate for the traineeship program.
