Spotify Interview Challenge

Problem

As part of the spotify sumer intern interview process, I had to write a website that uses the OMDB API to search for movies and “nominate” them. Nominating a movie simply adds them to the list of the side of the screen.

My Solution

I went with a simple, minimalistic design that contains a search bar and two columns of elements underneath. One column displays movie elements that includes the movie title, thumbnail, year of release and a button to nominate the movie. The second column stores the nominated movies.

Next Steps

At the time I wrote this, I didn’t notice a bug where the first search result does not update when a different search term is requested.
