Project structure

This is a simple project that uses few directories to compose logic.

All static files are placed in the /static directory
The main source code files reside in /src which comprises:
- /src/pages for major screens (pages) of the UI
- /src/components for reusable components like MovieCard and Chip
- /src/lib for configurations and utility functions

NB

The API TOKEN for accessing the MovieDB is stubbed in /src/lib/api:

export const api = axios.create({
  baseURL: 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    Authorization: 'Bearer <API_READ_ACCESS_TOKEN>',
  },
})

Please replace <API_READ_ACCESS_TOKEN> with your TMDB token to access the API. Note that using an environment variable will not work as the app is client-side.
