MOODVIE.
Intro
Moodvie↗ is an innovative movie recommendation application that provides suggestions based on a user's music taste and mood.
The project stands out because it leverages Spotify's data, harnesses the power of AI through OpenAI's gpt-3.5-turbo API, and utilizes TMDB's vast movie database.
It uses an interesting method for determining movie recommendations: by analyzing the user's recently listened to songs on Spotify, it determines their mood and subsequently suggests relevant movies.
Moodvie's unique approach to movie discovery is powered by a robust tech stack called T3, it includes Next.js, TypeScript, TailwindCSS, tRPC, and Prisma, offering a seamless and personalized user experience.
Development
One of the technical challenges faced during the application's development was implementing the draggable songs image carousel. The final implementation was able to display an attractive, smoothly dragging image carousel for songs, greatly enhancing the user experience.
Recommendation Engine
Given the user's Spotify credentials, Moodvie fetches the user's recently listened to songs, analyzes them using OpenAI, and recommends movies based on the processed mood.
