Planning Process

When I was comming up with a project idea, I wanted to do something practical and useful. The main focus of the project was to store something in a database and create a front end to access it. During the quarantine time of 2020 I watched a lot of shows and movies and many friends were asking for reccomendations. I thought it would be cool if there was a list of everything I watched so I could remember everything(there were A LOT of shows). I first planned out the models, which consisted of a user model and an array of movies nested within that model. I set up the movies model with typical inputs people would want to save about the things they watched.

User Stories

• As a user I want to be able to save my thought on different movies I have watched.
• As a user I would like to access a list of movies I watched.
• As a user I would like to make a list of my favorite movies.
• As a user I want to be able to have my own account that is secure to store my movie watching data.
