The Movie Database Support

Hey! I am a student who is developing a project where we need to access information about movies and I have no clue on where to start using this. Is there some kind of dummy guide that might help? Do i need to download a library for it to work or how does it work? Thankful for any help on where to begin to understand how to use the api! Thanks

Hi elsawide,

Is there some kind of dummy guide that might help?

Not specifically, but all our API is, is a fairly standard JSON web service. So any REST or JSON guides you can find would be generally applicable.

Do I need to download a library for it to work or how does it work?

Again no, not necessarily, but there are a number of libraries that users have contributed that can greatly speed building your project. The list of available libraries languages and libraries is here.

Can't find a movie or TV show? Login to create it.
