Rancid Tomatillos is a web application that utilizes the 'create-react-app' package. Using this package created our first react app - Rancid Tomatillos. Rancid Tomatillos - not to be confused with Rotten Tomotoes - focuses on being able to show the user a database of movies in a persentable way and allow interaction such as saving, reviewing, and watching trailers of said movies. Although not all features are implemented just yet - our app still provides a great way to parse through a database of movies and view information about the movies.

then navigate inside of the directory and run the following commands to run the developer server:
cd rancid-tomatillos
npm install

After you have started the server you should be able to find the website visible at this URL
Dumbing down our vanilla JS minds to work better with react.
A great first look at react and how powerful it is as a framework. Things that would have taken us hours to code in react takes 10 minutes. As mentioned above - React takes a lot of the guess work out of coding, and we were not used to that. After having gone through this project, we can step away from it with a new understanding of "reusable code"
