OMDb Search

A MERN stack app that allows users to search the OMDb database for movies and shows. A successful search query will display up to 10 results in each category, with each result containing a modal to open for additional IMDb information. Users also have the option to create an account so they can add and remove items from their favorites list and view this list whenever they're logged in.
