Using Rshiny to create a website for movies recommendation
Course project for STA 532 Statistical Programming
July 13, 2018
We use Rshiny to create an interface to display information of interesting movies and performers. It also supports movies recommendation and search. The main challeges are two parts: to obtain information from TMDB based on API requests, and then display it in an interactive platform.
Our shiny app supports:
- get the information from the latest movies and popular movies
- ask for movie recommendations based on the genre you prefer
- search for your favorite actors or directors to get their movies and personal information
