# Movie & TV Show Search App

A simple JavaScript application for searching movies and TV shows. This project leverages The Open Movie Database (OMDb) API to fetch and display relevant information. The app is inspired by a tutorial from [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgE71N0q5yI&list=PLNCevxogE3fgy0pAzVccadWKaQp9iHspz&index=16) as part of my JavaScript practice.
