Overview

Rancid Tomatillos is an application built using the React.js framework. It takes inspiration from popular review-aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes as well as many different streaming services including but not limited to Netflix and HBO Max. The goal of this application is to allow users to look at information about 40 different films that they might be interested in watching.

Rancid Tomatillos was my first React Application. It was exciting it was to see how quickly a project came together using the React Framework. There was a steep learning curve while familiarizing myself with JSX syntax and React Router, however I developed confidence as I progressed. I initially utilizied class components to handle state and passed data using props. Later as I iterated through the project, I re-factored to use hooks and functional components.
