React Movie DB
Discover movies and TV series in real time — Two approaches, one vision. Finding reliable information about a movie or TV show often means juggling between multiple websites. That is exactly the problem this project solves, developed in two distinct versions to explore React's different philosophies.
The objective of this project is twofold: create an interface providing instant access to movie and TV series information, while mastering React's two fundamental paradigms.
The application is first developed using class components, React's historical approach. This method relies on ES6 syntax with lifecycle methods (componentDidMount, componentDidUpdate) to handle API calls and state updates via setState(). This version illustrates the foundations upon which React was built.
The application is then rebuilt using the modern approach: functional components combined with Hooks (useState, useEffect). This more concise and readable syntax represents today's React development standard. It facilitates logic reuse and improves code maintainability.
Both versions connect to the TMDB API to display latest releases, enable title search, and view detailed information for each work.
