Netflix Clone

A full-stack Netflix clone that comes with an admin dashboard.

About The Project

This is a Netflix clone written using the MERN stack. It features a client side which allows users to register, login, browse and watch content categorized by type (movie or series) and genre. It also features an admin dashboard which is a fully functional CMS that allows admins to view, create, modify and delete users, content and content lists.

_{Note: For copyright and licensing reasons, there are no actual movies or series to watch. All video content is made up of royalty free placeholder videos.}
