Lead Instructor Interview Challenge | Movies App

Goals

  1. Apply technologies of the MERN stack. (Redux/Context is not mandatory.)
  2. Demonstrate an overall grasp of Web development fundamentals.
  3. Talk about your code during the code review.

Submission

Push your code to a public repository on your GitHub account and send its URL via email. We'll check the code quality and reach out to schedule your code review.

Introduction

You are the CTO of a small disruptive startup in stealth mode with a single objective: to take down IMDB. You're hoping that your first technology decision will be an impactful one: your application will use JavaScript everywhere! JavaScript is on the rise, so what can go wrong?

Technologies

Your goal is to create your prototype: a simple full-stack CRUD application for movies. To do this, you need to:

  • Use NodeJS and ExpressJS. (BONUS points for following REST naming conventions in your URLs)
  • Use your choice of database. (BONUS points for using MongoDB)
  • Use ReactJS in the frontend
  • Apply basic CSS styling. (No page should look unstyled. Feel free to use a CSS component library like Bootstrap or Materialize or any other.)
  • Show validation feedback when a form is submitted incorrectly.

Features

Your application should have the following features:

  1. You should have registered users:
    • they will use email and password to authenticate themselves,
    • they will have to input their full name when signing in.
    • BONUS - feel free to use any of the social strategies to authenticate users.
  2. Users should be able to add/create new movies.
  3. Users should be able to see the list of 20 most recent movies. (BONUS points for implementing pagination)
  4. Users should be able to see the details page of each movie.
  5. Users should be able to update existing movies.
  6. Users should be able to delete movies.

To summarize:

The schema for a user should include:

  • full name
  • email
  • password

The schema for a movie should include:

  • title
  • poster image URL (BONUS points for allowing image file uploads)
  • director
  • release date
  • score (1 to 10)
  • plot description

Happy coding!
