For each person in your triad, describe something you learned from your partner during this project	Cathy: I learned from Hannah how to set a timer and retrieve random images in the carousel. I learned from Denisse how to use the React-Router, effectively manage git and so many other things! Denisse: I learned from Cathy how to better understand prop-types and how to use it in our code. I learned from Hannah how to create a carousel of pictures. Hannah: I learned aton from both Cathy and Denisse. From Denisse, I learned about React-Router(the 3 primary components), how it pretty much does the same thing as layout and routes.rb file, I also polished my skills on git through us sharing screens and helping each other with different skills. From Cathy, I learned about css, html and everything in between.
What was one area of React you gained more clarity on during this assignment?	We gained more clarity on combining the use of bootstrap and css stylesheets. Got a better clarity on working with axios and keeping the state up to date with the axios request.
Describe how you solved the problem of having lists of movies that look mostly the same but have different content	We solved it by passing different callback functions into the same prop variable. For example, some Movie components were passed in the selectMovie and others were passed in the selectMovieToAdd callback function.
Describe how you handled rentals with React	We decided to handle the rentals by having both a movie title and a user selected before being able to create a rental for that user. After the rental is made then the number of rented movies increases in the user’s profile card.
Describe a DOM event your application handled	When we click on the button “Select Customer” we find the customer in our customerList and update the selectedCustomer state.
Did you use any functional stateless components? What for?	Yes, Movie and Customer components, for example, were stateless components that retrieved data from props.
Did you use any container components? What for?	Yes, we had a MovieLibrary and CustomerList that held the collections of movies and libraries respectively. This was useful when we wanted to display the whole collection of nested components.
Do you have any recommendations on how we could improve this project for the next cohort?	The timing when the project was presented could be different.
