Description

ReactJS Web Application with Redux.

The application calls the Giphy REST API to request for photo data. When the user clicks on a photo, a dialog appears with the selected Giphy's video playing.

There are several thousand entries returned for each search result that contain a complex JSON object.

A pagination approach was taken. The first 3 pages are pre-loaded. If the user clicks on another page, the data only for that page is loaded.

Rational:

Pagination divides large data sets into smaller subsets that are manageable for the user to read. Significant performance can be achieved by only returning subsets of a large data set. Pagination gives the user an idea of how big the data set is, how much is left to read, and how much they have already seen.
