Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment!

Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
For each person in your pair, describe something you learned from your partner during this project	Victoria: I learned about the slideToggle functionality in Backbone from Lauren - it's how we displayed the overview of each movie.
What was one area of Backbone you gained more clarity on during this assignment?	It was nice to learn a little bit more about the API calls that Backbone built-in functions can make, and how those work.
Describe how you solved the problem of having lists of movies that look mostly the same but have different content	We used separate templates for two MovieListViews that differentiated the IMDB and Library views - but I just learned we could have used a conditional in the template!
Describe how you handled rentals with Backbone?	We did not.
Describe a DOM event your application handled	You can click "show details" on a movie card to expand out the movie's overview.
Describe a custom event your application handled	You can add a movie to your rental inventory - the rentalListView instance of MovieListView listens for an event, creates a hash with the necessary object attributes and adds the object to it's model (a collection of movies).
Do you have any recommendations on how we could improve this project for the next cohort?

I'm not sure I can edit the original pull request comment, so I am adding my answer to the comprehension question here.

Victoria helped me better understand the flow of events through Backbone Models, Collections and Views.

You can also make url a function like:

url() {
  return query ? `http://localhost:3000/movies/${query}`:  'http://localhost:3000/movies/';
}
