The Anime app for you!
This is an app where anime lovers can go to find information on their current favorites as well as find new ones thanks to our user's ratings!
This web based app allows users to sign-up and create an account with us. Our home page allows users to view the currently top 50 rated anime’s in descending order. Once an anime has been selected you will be show its current rating as well as how many members have favorited said show. In addition, you will be prompted if you would like to learn more about the current anime you are viewing. You will then be sent to that anime's page where you will find information such as its rank, user ratings, age rating, number of episodes and their length, airing status, a synopsis, as well as a trailer.
Our main driving force for creating this project is mainly due for our love of anime and we wanted to share that with everyone! We realized that making a web application to not only show user's what is being watched, but with all the information they could desire before jumping into a new a new series.

You will need to cd into the Animania folder, this is the Ruby on Rails backend folder. To get things started you will first need to bundle install, this will install all the Ruby gems needed. If you encounter an error due to your version of ruby simply go to line 4 of the Gemfile and fix as needed i.e. ruby '2.6.5' to ruby '2.6.6'. You will then need to create your local database by running rake db:migrate. In addition you will need to seed your database by running rake db:seed in your console. Once everything has completed you can start your rails server by running rails s.
To get your frontend up and running you will simply need to cd in the Animania-app folder, this is the JavaScript frontend folder. To start up your frontend server you will simply need to run lite-server, if not installed I highly recommend it, will open Animania in your browser.
We are constantly trying to improve our user's experience as well as building out future features. We value feedback from our community and are open to idea's as well as collaboration!
