In plain words

TerminalMdB is a command-line interface tool that retrieves information from IMdB. It is designed for developers and users who prefer working from the terminal rather than through a web browser. The tool allows users to search for and access IMdB data directly from their command line, making it useful for those who frequently need quick access to movie and TV show information while working in a terminal environment.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.
