The Movie Database (TMDB) is a popular crowdsourced database for movies and TV shows. TMDB’s API enables us to incorporate functions, that are usually reserved for leading movie-related websites, into our application.  

This course is a hands-on guide on using the TMDB API to retrieve data related to movies and television shows. You’ll look up essential production data, such as title, release date, cast, and crew, and associated media files (trailer videos and stills). You’ll also pull reviews and associated productions to make recommendations. With time-bound queries, you’ll be able to display the latest data on movies and TV shows, including upcoming releases. Moreover, you’ll look up actors, directors, producers, and other crew members to find their production catalogs. 

After reviewing the various potential search functions of the Movie Database API, you’ll conclude the course by learning to integrate TMDB API into a React application.
