A Text summarizer - ShortSumUp

(THIS PROJECT WAS MADE FOR THE MLH HACK AT HOME 2 HACKATHON!)

Inspiration

The lockdown inspired me to make this project as i couldnt read full page articles with the amount of stuff i had on hand and thats why i made this project which would basically take a very big article/text and summarize it or basically give out a short summary which would be very convenient to read :)

What it does

it basically takes a long text input (make sure its big and has no new lines and all is in one para) and sums it up, giving out a short summary of the big text.

How we built it

i used python programming language and the spacy module with some help on YouTube tutorials about how to go about it. note:(i used some YouTube tutorials for help and its for a MLH hackathon hack at home 2 (my first hackathon))

Challenges we ran into

many errors came into the last when running the program and i had to look all over the internet including the most used site STACK OVERFLOW. but even with those errors i managed to fix it in time.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

i am proud of this project a lot since i actually made a text summarizer which would summarize small articles, i thought this wouldn't be possible but indeed it was. (YouTube tutorials were a big help so thanks to that!)

What we learned

i learnt many things like advanced python concepts, various ways to implement for loops, dictionaries in a better way and to actually use the spacy module and the nlp() function too with many more things
