Backend Coding Task

A group of movie fans created an app to rate movies but need a backend developer to implement authentication, APIs for adding and rating movies, sending daily average ratings to admins, and following best practices for code quality and documentation. The developer should set up a project using a framework like Django or Flask, add token authentication, and REST APIs for movies and ratings while documenting the APIs and assumptions in a README file to share on GitHub.

Rate My Movie

A bunch of movie lovers were betting for their favorite movies. So to take it to the next level, they decided to
have a rating from other people. For this, they planned to create an app where they can add movies and other
people can rate them.

They have managed to get a UI developer and now they have a nice UI. Now they have begun their hunt for a
kick-ass backend developer who can give the backbone to their app.

So, if you want to help them, just fulfill these requirements:

1. Set up a Web API Project using Django/flask or any other framework.

2. Implement token-based authentication.

3. For signup and login, you can either use any third party library or tool, or you can write REST API
endpoints for them

4. Users can add a movie and other people, except the creator, can rate it. And remember a user can only
rate a movie once.

5. Design and implement REST API endpoints for adding a movie, rating it.

6. Document these API endpoints in an API.md file

7. Design and implement a task, that sends the average rating of each movie to all of the admins, at
midnight daily

8. Bonus points for tests

9. Don't forget about the code quality

Use the Github Flow (https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow/) workflow to develop the above


app so that we can follow along as you code.

Note down the assumptions you make in the README file. Also, write down the API endpoint
documentation and database modeling in the README file. Use any database that you are
comfortable with.

Please share the link for your GitHub repo.
