I created this during my vacation because I wanted it to exist. The joy of being a web developer is being able to create the stuff you wish existed!

The repo is here, and the README covers some of the more interesting parts of the codebase: https://github.com/joshwcomeau/Tello

Funny, I was making something similar myself!

Even using the same API... what a small world. I'm glad I can use yours instead now! I was actually thinking it would be fun to use Python to search the Tv Maze API for cast of different shows you like and then find common shows with the same actors. Might be a waste of time though. Nice job on Tello.

I want to give you a special thanks for releasing a working example of a clean and professional codebase. I'm a web developer who works mostly in angular/vue + backend so it's great to have another reference point / comparison if/when I dive into React.

Also as minor feedback, a bulk-add view for shows would be nice.

Appreciate it!

Are you thinking about using React for a project soon instead? I'm kind of considering it too, but I really like using Angular 4

Looks nice, there's a slight bug on the calendar view, see https://imgur.com/d3JJsNd (take a look how "Majority Rule" behaves when switching weeks)

I'd like to see a page with a countdown to next episode air time for all shows, like a reverse timeline.

Oh no! Thanks for letting me know. I saw that as well once, but wasn't able to reproduce it. Will try again!
