Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
Prerequisites
Setting up the environment
Next you will need to create an .env file that has the following fields:
TMDBAPI={YOUR_API_KEY
TWITTER_BEARER_TOKEN={YOUR_0AUTH2 BEARER TOKEN}
TMDBAPI is a TMDB (similar to IMDB but has an API) api key that you will need to generate.
The TWITTER_BEARER_TOKEN is needed to get the tweet data from twitter. You will have to register for a developer account with twitter and then create an app. These steps will explain further https://developer.twitter.com/en/apply-for-access.html
