The development process for the MyFlixAngularClient project involved several stages, starting with project planning and setup. The first step was defining the app's core functionality, which included allowing users to register, update/add information, and manage their favorite movies. For security, password hashing was implemented during the user registration and update process. Next, I chose Angular (TypeScript) as the main framework for building the client side of the application. Using the Angular CLI (version 14.2.3), I generated the initial structure of the app. To ensure responsiveness and a clean, modern interface, I implemented SCSS for styling and used HTML for the structure of the user interface.

The core feature of the app is interacting with a REST API that provides movie data. I integrated this API into the Angular app, allowing users to retrieve movie information and interact with their list of favorite movies, including adding and removing titles.

For user authentication, I implemented secure login and registration functionality using password hashing to protect user credentials. This involved integrating services to securely store and manage passwords.

During development, I used VS Code as the primary IDE, ensuring smooth integration and management of the project files. After implementing the core features, I performed testing and debugging to ensure smooth functionality, particularly focusing on the registration process, movie list management, and user interface. Once development was complete, I ran the app locally using npm start, which allowed me to test all features on localhost:4200. After making final tweaks, I ensured that all dependencies were correctly installed with npm install.
