JSON - API

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

So I’m quite new to programming. 

I’m trying to import data from themoviedb API into my simple app. 

Firstly, Is relying heavily on a database API a stable enough way of developing? 

Secondly, are there any particular turtorial areas that will help me with this? 

Cheers

I have good experience working with SQLite so far. My app is extremely DB heavy.

I guess first you would start with downloading the JSON file: http://docs.coronalabs.com/daily/api/library/network/download.html

And here is info about Corona and JSON: http://docs.coronalabs.com/daily/api/library/json/index.html

If you are new to Lua, start with getting to know Lua table structure before starting is my advice.
