With this project, a single-page Movie Application will be developed using ReactJS and TailwindCSS, and it is aimed to develop skills in subjects such as API usage, asynchronous data processing and dynamic content management and conditional rendering.

• React (React-Router & React-Context API)

• TailwindCSS

• Axios

• Firebase Authentication

• Toastify (For Error Messages)

• Vite

• Step 1: Clone the Repository to Your Local Machine:

  Copy the URL of the project repository from GitHub or a similar platform. Open your terminal or command prompt and navigate to the directory where you want to store the project. Use the following command to clone the repository:

  git clone <repository_url>
  

  Replace <repository_url> with the URL of the project repository you copied.

• Step 2: Install Node Package Manager:

  Navigate to the root directory of the project in your terminal or command prompt. Use the following command to install npm packages:

  npm install
  

  This command will install the project's dependencies based on the list in the package.json file.

• Step 3: Signup https://developer.themoviedb.org/docs/getting-started and get api key, signup also https://firebase.google.com/ to create a project and copy project configurations. After that, paste your personal api key and firebase configurations into your .env file (like example.env file) that you will create in your project root directory. You can check "example.env" file in project root directory.

  VITE_FIREBASE_API_KEY=[YOUR_VITE_FIREBASE_API_KEY]
  VITE_FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN=[YOUR_VITE_FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN]
  VITE_FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID=[YOUR_VITE_FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID]
  VITE_FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET=[YOUR_VITE_FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET]
  VITE_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID=[YOUR_VITE_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID]
  VITE_FIREBASE_APP_ID=[YOUR_VITE_FIREBASE_APP_ID]
  VITE_TMDB_KEY=[YOUR_VITE_TMDB_KEY]
  

  Replace [YOUR...] with your personal firebase configurations and TMDB api key that you get from tmdb_

• Step 4 : Once all packages are successfully installed and api key is pasted, use the following command to start the project:

  pnpm dev
  

  This command will start the development server and open a live preview of the project in your default web browser. If the browser doesn't open automatically, you can view the project by navigating to http://localhost:3000.
