The List uses Google Oauth 2.0 to authenticate its users. A new user will be prompted to enter their Gmail account and password in order to access and sign in to The List. Once signed in, the user will land on their dashboard, which displays various media recommendations, by whom they were recommended, and a personal watchlist.
From the dashboard, a user can navigate to a search page, where they can search for media to add to their watchlist or
recommend to other users.
After searching for either a book or a movie, a user will be able to browse all the results, click the link for that particular media, and see additional information. The user is able to recommend this media to other users from this page.
The List consumes several API's, including our own, built from the ground up back-end, TheListAPI. Additionally, The List consumes the following two external API's for media data:
