Regarding streaming info, I'd love to have more data available but the API is just giving us the name of the provider and its logo :).
As for movie/tv show info, I have indeed more data available. What do you think is missing and should be added there?

Just curious what’s the motivation of making this? If what you’re trying to make is already available and you’re literallly just pulling its API?

I was not happy with the justwatch website, I find the UI too crowded, I just wanted a simpler interface that even my kids could use when checking if a movie was available. As I'm a web developer, it was a good excuse to build something and I thought I might as well release it just in case someone else would find it useful too.

Yeah who needs forks? Seriously why not. As long it's more convenient.

I threw in Harry Potter for fun, and your site was much faster and somehow more accurate than justwatch.com/ca. Your site said I could watch it at crave, which I can, but justwatch said it's not streaming anywhere. Weird, but kudos. I don't understand all the flack as your site brings value, to some at least.

Or unogs, or one of the myriad of sites already available. Getting a bit tired of the "I made this thing of which dozens already existed" posts.

Or Playpilot

Well yeah, justwatch without the distraction, that was the goal :)

What distractions does justwatch have 😂😂

JustWatch uses IMDb, which is an Amazon company.
