Movie Search 3k! This requires the API running on localhost:9000 Here's the link: https://github.com/zckramer/movie-search-backend

You will probably have to npm install for both front and back-ends. Search for a movie title as accurately as you can. Even with misspellings or punctuation errors you can get possible matches (at the bottom of the page) while the main search will return the closest match! Tech Stack: I'm using the unofficial IMDB API, found here: https://rapidapi.com/hmerritt/api/imdb-internet-movie-database-unofficial I chose it because it's totally FREE ;) I managed to use both API methods it provides.

I used create-react-app for the front-end, and express-generator for the back-end. The database is mongoDB.
