New Features

#1 Updated design

Media page

I updated the design of the media page so it could show more information without taking up as much space. On the right it now shows the three main actors and the genres associated with it.

Posts preview

I also updated the design of the posts preview to specify a fixed height. This fixed issues I was having with images not lining up.

#2 Recommended movies/shows

At the end of each post and media page there is a carousel showing recommended movies or shows. In the future I aim to show posts as well in this section that match the items in the carousel.

Add similar to append_to_response

#4 New post page design

You can now search for a movie or show to write your post about or click the new post button and it will be autofilled.

Bug Fixes

Fixed the performance impact of the react-dotdotdot 3rd party dependency.
I've switched back to simply using the character count to shorten text.
