About

movieAPI is an application I developed to improve my programming/developer skills. It uses two different projects or applicantions, one (the backend) is a Ruby on Rails API app and the other one (the frontend) is a React.js app which uses material-ui.

The backend app repository can be found here.

The frontend app repository can be found here.
