Build a Movie App with VueJS

We will build a movie application using Vue.js. By the end, you'll have a fully functional movie app that will allow users to search for movies, view their details, and get information such as title, year, rating, and plot.

Prerequisites:

• Vue.js
• Node.js and npm are installed on your system.

Approach

• Vue Components: We will create two Vue components, MovieSearch and MovieDetail.
• HTTP Requests: Axios is used to make API calls to OMDB.
• Conditional Rendering: We will implement conditional rendering to display search results or movie details based on user interactions.

Steps to Create Application

Step 1: Setup Vue Project

Create a new Vue project using Vue CLI.

vue create movie-mania

Step 2: Install Axios

Axios is used for making HTTP requests. Install it in your project.

npm install axios

Updated dependencies will look like

"dependencies": {
 "axios": "^1.6.8",
 "core-js": "^3.8.3",
 "vue": "^3.2.13"
 },

Step 3: Creating and managing files and folders

• Create MovieDetail.vue and MovieSearch.vue files inside the component folder
• Replace the content of src/App.vue with the given below code.

Example: This example shows the creation of a Movie App.

Run the Project:

npm run dev

Output:
