Next up / TODO

This repository contains limited functionality due to the time constraints for this task of ~4 hours. Here's a few improvements that should be done if given more time:

1. Show network status / disable search field if network connection is lost.
2. Separate concerns of the FlickrApi class. Right now, this class contains both API integration, threading and some functionality that is related to UX (debouncing). This should be separated.
3. Use JAX to retrieve Flickr response instead of manual object mapping to FlickrImage[].
4. Implement fullscreen image loading on thumbnail click (stub code is there).
5. Implement tests.
