We authenticate users using an email address and a password with Firebase.
We have used Firestore to store our films and series data. We hydrate Firestore by importing data from src/seed.js that produces two collections of the film and series. Each entry of a collection has a genre property. To display data categorically, we filter each collection by genre of each entry which looks like this:
{
series: [
{
title: 'Documentaries',
data: [{}, {}, {}],
},
{
title: 'Comedies',
data: [{}, {}, {}],
},
],
films: []
}
We have adopted the CSS-in-JS approach to style this application and used styled components. It helps us to encapsulate the styles within the components. Styled components also give us out-of-the-box CSS support like nesting styles and variables with exceptional theming support.
We have built a component library using compound components design pattern. It helps us to encapsulate most of the component-related logic within the components.
We have enabled application routing using React Router's BrowserRouter that uses HTML5 history API.
We have used Context API for global state management and sharing states between the parent and children within compound components.
The challenge with the video player was it lives deep in the DOM, but we needed to bring it on top of all other DOM nodes whenever the user decides to play a video preserving its position in the React hierarchy. We have accomplished this via React Portal.
