Netflix Movies and Categories Finder: Dramas based on classic literature
This website lists Netflix categories directly with link to open them inside your app. There is no guarantee of the accuracy of the data, as it is depending on the country you are watching from. Also, Netflix may change their content at any time, which may not be reflected immediately in this database. There is no formal association between this website and Netflix. This was a fun project created on a Sunday afternoon (while watching Netflix 😅). And Netflix is obviously a registered trademark by Netflix, Inc.
