This one skips the database on purpose. It does search and recommendations over a movie dataset using the data structures directly — linked lists, hash tables, AVL trees — so the performance is something you understand rather than inherit.
What it does
You can search across genre, year, rating, actor, and director using hand-built hash tables and AVL trees, and get recommendations from shared-actor relationships. The search and sorting were tuned by hand to keep retrieval fast.
