Create an app using Angular and Angular Material to search and display Star Wars characters using Swapi

Requirements

• On page load display all characters returned from the endpoint https://swapi.dev/api/people/
  • Display the visible amount shown and the max result count
• Add a material select so the user can sort the results by:
  • A-Z
  • Z-A
  • Male
  • Female
• On each card in the results include an image assets/mock-image.png and display the character name below as shown in the design.
  • For every odd card use image assets/mock-image-1.png
• When the user clicks load more it should append the next set of results
• When a user types a character name and clicks search, it should call https://swapi.dev/api/people/?search= and update the results.
• The page should be responsive, ensure the layout looks respectable on mobile and tablet viewpoints.
• Unit tests will be a big bonus point.

What we will evaluate

• Your code will be evaluated by: semantics, structure, legibility, size, among other factors.
• The git history will be evaluated.
• Our tech stack here is Angular 9, NGRX, SCSS and Angular Material, we would like you to use the same stack.
• We're looking for a front-end developer who knows how to build layouts and knows a lot about JavaScript. Use this as an opportunity to show us how good you are on both areas.
