Angular Jeopardy-style trivia game. Each category/question is based on a popular movie franchise.

I previously created a similar Jeopardy-style Java App, 6 years ago(2017), for an intro-level programming course in college. Not the cleanest work 😅 but I greatly enjoyed working on that project so I wanted to take another stab at it. It's been a tough year but coding brings me joy so I hope you enjoy this app too 🖤.

Using Adobe XD, I created a style-guide to ensure consistent principles, design language, and best practices would be followed. From typography, iconography, components to fully fleshed out mocks of each page.

Install the Angular CLI globally:
npm install -g @angular/cli@~13.3.2

Seting Up Project

Once you've cloned or downloaded a local copy of this application, navigate to the workspace folder movie-jeopardy you need to install all packages listed in package.json:

npm install

This will output a node_modules/ folder which stores all installed npm packages and dependencies.

Run the application:
ng serve --open

The ng serve command launches the server and will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

The --open (or just -o) option automatically opens your browser to your local server http://localhost:4200/.

If your installation and setup was successful, you should see the following page:

🎉 Acknowledgements

  • I drew a lot of inspiration from Bootstrap & Angular Material when working on the style-guide for this app, so hats off to the individuals that work hard to maintain those libraries.
