Your task is to build a mobile app that integrates with the Movie Catalog REST API and presents the retrieved data. Please agree with your hiring team regarding the tech stack choice.
The app should have a movie list view and a movie details view.
Tapping on a movie on the list should open the details view for that movie. There should also be a way to navigate back to the list view from the details view.

- Implement pagination for the movie list. It's up to you to define the page limit. We want to see your approach to dealing with large data sets.
- Implement error handling for cases when the API cannot be reached or returns a server error.
- Ensure that the app remains responsive while the data is being loaded.
- Avoid duplication and extract re-usable components where it makes sense. We want to see your approach to creating a codebase that is easy to maintain.
- Unit test one component of choice. There is no need to test the whole app, as we only want to understand what you take into consideration when writing unit tests.
- Add instructions describing how to run your app locally.
- Push your code to the
implementationbranch. We encourage you to commit and push your changes regularly as it's a way for us to understand your thinking process. - Create a new Pull Request - Do NOT merge it
⚠️ . That's how we know that you're ready. - Answer the questions you get on your Pull Request.
Create a new GitHub issue on this repository, and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
About 3 hours. But don't worry! There is no countdown. This number is for you to plan your time.
