+# Auto-generated content
+By definition, a static page generator does not support dynamic data.
+
+Here I implement a solution that generates Markdown files for the Hugo page generator. 
+
+# IMDb
+I have used the IMDb service for years. I rate every movie I watch and use it as a reminder to myself of what movies I need to watch and which movies I have watched. (See https://www.imdb.com/user/ur25404390/ratings). Currently my list is well over 650 movies and counting. IMDb allows for exporting the list to CSV format, the CSV file 
+
+The following fields are avaible in the CSV file. 
+| Field          | Description                                                                                   |

+# Implementation
+I opted to use PHP for the implementation.
+
+ - To parse the CSV file I use the library leauge/csv. (https://csv.thephpleague.com/)
+ - To scrape additional movie information from IMDb I used the library imdbphp/imdbphp. (https://github.com/tboothman/imdbphp)
+ - To generate output .md files I used the Twig template engine. (https://twig.symfony.com/)
