ComposeCatchflicks 🎬

     

🎬 This is a Compose version of my earlier Catchflicks project. This will be my new Kitchen Sink Project for learning new Android concepts. This project mainly contains Compose Navigation, Compose Paging, Coroutines, Hilt, Retrofit, and all the UI created in Jetpack Compose 🎬

Development Setup ⚙️

This project fetches movies data from the TMDb API.
To begin the setup, you'll need to create an API key.

1. Create an account at themoviedb.org
2. Go to settings from the profile icon
3. Click on API
4. Click on Create

# Insert at ~/local.properties
TMDB_API_KEY=<insert>

This project uses the Hilt for dependency Injection. After opening this project in your Android Studio you might get some error which is due unavailability of a few classes. You need to make a project or try to build the project, this will generate all the required classes for Hilt.
