The PTM movie catalogue and category-browsing interface.
Overview
What I set out to build
PTM presents Telugu movie content through browsable categories and focused title information. The project was used to practice connecting a React interface to content managed outside the application.
Challenge
The product problem
The interface needed to turn externally managed movie content into a simple discovery journey without embedding all content directly in frontend code.
Approach
How I approached it
I modeled and retrieved content through Prismic, used GraphQL for the data layer, and rendered reusable movie views in React. Categories and detail actions provide the primary way through the catalogue.
