In this chapter, we'll build a Movies app. As soon as the user opens it, the app will show a list of movies that are about to come out in cinemas. The user will also be able to search for movies by title on the same screen, like so:
If they tap on one of the movies, the app will show a second screen, which is a more detailed view of the movie with a bigger image and an overview:
To retrieve the data, the app will use an open web service, which is The Movie Database API.
By the end of this chapter, you'll have built a fully functional app that connects to the web and retrieves data from a remote web service.
The time required for this project is approximately three hours.
