• RouteProvider as Route
• Switch
• Link

Project Description

Initialize Project

• Clone the project.
• Run the server using node server.js
• In a separate folder create your project. Install the following packages redux, react-redux, redux-promise, react-router-dom, and prop-types.
• Set up your router to serve two pages.
• Your home page should retrieve a list of movies from the server and display them.
• When a user clicks on a movie title they should be taken to a second page that displays more info about each movie.

Notes/Hints

• Dispatch the action to retrieve the list of movies from inside of componentDidMount.
• Use <Link /> tags to navigate between both pages.
• The two routes on the server are /movies which returns the array of movies and /movies/:id which accepts the id from the movie object as a query parameter. Both routes are meant to handle GET requests.
