"Take-Home" Coding Challenge: Movies App

"Take-Home" Coding Challenge: Movies App

By Ira Herman


This code challange prompt is modeled after real-world take-home code challenges/prompts many companies use as part of their technical interview process.

This will help you practice/prepare to build a mini-project off of specs, and give you practice/reinforcement using ReactJS with an API back end.
