HTA application written in Javascript and VBscript for tracking and sorting movies list by their release date

The Movie Tracker app is a simple HTA application written mostly in JavaScript (and partly in VBscript) that tracks a list of movies and/or series that are sorted by their release date. It gets the movie info by parsing an IMDb HTML response based on the URL entered by the user. The data is extracted from the IMDb's JSON script and is stored inside the HTML code itself, also as JSON script.

I acquired Masters degree in computing science at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing in Zagreb, Croatia in 2009. Following my studies, I got a job in a Croatian branch of Austrian-based CEE Raiffeisen Bank as an MIS (Management information system) analyst.
I have been working there since 2010, as an IT expert within the Controlling department, maintaining the Oracle's OFSA system, underlying interfaces and databases.
Throughout that time, I have worked with several different technologies, which include SQL & PL/SQL (mostly), postgres, Cognos BI, Apparo, Datastage, ODI, Jenkins, Qlik, ...
I am doing a lot of automation with scripting in batch / shell and VBscript (mostly) - data analysis and processing, automated DB imports and exports, Jenkins automation etc.
Privately, I was mostly doing Windows Forms and Console app tools in Visual Studio, C#.
