Development of a Movie Website

How to develop a Movie Website

This blog is about the development and concept of this Movie Database website. The website, as well as the Postgres database, is hosted on Vercel and was developed using Svelte with SvelteKit as well as the TheMovieDB API.

Features

The website has the following features:
✅ Daily popular movies
✅ Search movie by name
✅ User login
✅ Like movies
✅ Save movies
✅ Individualized recommendations
❌ More optimized recommendations
❌ Links to watch the movie on the movie providers website

Documentation

How do I document the process developing that website? I set myself some rules to keep each update consistant.

• This post gets updated each time a news feature is introduced
• This post serves as documentation on how to use the site
• Each “Version” post describes the changes that were made as well as new features and includes a link to the GitHub commit
• A “Version” post consists of the following sections: Description, Changes, Features

The “Version” posts follow this template:

---
title: Version x.x.x
date: "2023-04-03"
