Why?

We are looking for high-performance team members. So, in order to know you a little bit we have created a challenge.

The Challenge

We are looking for a way that allows us to fetch our favorite songs from Spotify, store them, and filter them inside our own app. Why? Why not!

Brief

First part

• We want to create the best music streaming app in the market
• The app must have a form with a "search field" and a button "search". Be free to take inspiration on spotify.com
• When a user completes the album or artist name in the field "search field" and press the button "search" the list of albums must be filtered.

Second part

• The app must connect to Spotify and fetch resources (albums and artists) and store it in the app's database (model or table called "results")
• The app must display a list (or table) with results

Third part

• We have an agreement with several discographic companies and they provide us with their complete catalog (albums.csv) so we must create a database to store it, categorize and rank it.
