Hivemind App Coding Challenge

Welcome to the App Coding Challenge!

In this challenge you should create a simple app that allows to search movies on TMDB.

Requirements

• Write the app using Flutter, so that it runs on both Android and iOS.
• The app should consist of two screens: Search and Details.
• The search should search for movies only, using the TMDB movie API: https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/search/search-movies
• To use the API, create an account on TMDB and go to settings/API (https://www.themoviedb.org/settings/api)
• The code should live in a private git repository on github. We will give you github usernames that you should invite.

Search Screen

• The search screen should have a textfield and a search button.
• A list of search results should be displayed below the field and button.
• When the user stops typing, the search results should update automatically.
• You don't have to implement pagination. Just show the first page of the search results.
• Bonus: Implement a clear-button inside the textfield.

Detail Screen

• Tapping on a search result should show the details in another screen.
• It should show: title, description, poster
