MovieYAY App

This application is made for the Web Development Minor: Performance Matters course.

What does it do?

  • NodeJS & Express for server-side rendering
  • Handlebars to handle the templating
  • Browserify to bundle the Javascript
  • The Movie Database API to request movie info
  • Installed a basic Service Worker for offline handling & caching with the help of this lovely lady

You can search for a movie and the app gives you some extra information about the movie.

How to install the project?

  • Download/clone the repo and run the npm install command
  • Run the npm start command to start the server
  • Go to your localhost
  • Voila

Service Worker - important

The Service Worker is not enabled by default because of this problem (POST requests won't work).

If you want to enable the Service Worker, just uncomment the code in the index.js file.

Other commands

  • npm run build to build the bundle.js with Browserify
  • npm run watch to watch the index.js so it automatically builds the bundle.js
  • npm run lint to lint your code with XO
  • npm run expose to create a public URL to a local webserver
  • npm run test to build the bundle with Browserify and lint the code with XO

Performance Increase

The Dev Tools tests were done with disabled cache and with a Regular 2G throttle.
