Date: September 2023

Mike's Media website was a huge endeavor for myself to test my programming skills and abilities, and at the same time learn and implement new technologies — while producing something useful in the end. It is a fully functional media website platform to browse, discover, and stream movies and TV series. Other functionality includes the ability to request new additions and Plex access as a user, as an administrator it incorporates a fully functional administration panel, that controls every facet of the website. The technologies used to develop this website are various scripting and programming languages including HTML, CSS, JavaScript (JS)/jQuery mixture, and MySQL for the databases.

The web-based media player is what enables you the ability to stream and watch whatever you choose to your browser. Even by navigating to the page of a movie or TV series and particular show, it is not yet logged into your recently watched on your account until you hit the play button, thus keeping accurate results.
