Description

If you’re living with multiple people, most likely the discussion about having which shows taking up space on the DVR can cause some chaos. In this talk, learn how the BattDVR project can solve this problem through the integration of multiple concepts and libraries.

• Factory Design Pattern
• Web Scraping
• Metadata collection via APIs
• Object Oriented Design and Inheritance
• Storing project preferences locally
