This project is made using the MERN stack. This is the link to the deployed version:
This app's purpose is to select a random movie extracted from the TMDB (the movie data base) API. The user can press the big red button on the home page and receive a result or go to filters and discard the genres he/she is not interested in.
The app also allows saving the movie results in a favourites playlist and visit its content. He/She also can create new playlists of movies, and customize the name later, also add and delete movies from it.
Some of the features require the user to be logged in, those are: filtering, adding to favourites and creating new playlists. The user can easily sign up and log in or keep using the big red button to get a random movie without filtering.

VITE_SERVER_URL=http://localhost:5005
