Inspiration

  1. Nathan Dimmer's Livestream on how to use a Social Media API with Nathan
  2. Momentum Extension for Chrome
  3. My need for variation. I've been using the same Twitter header for three years now.

What it does

Changes my Twitter header according to the time, displays my two most recent followers.

How I built it

Using Twitter API, a little bit of Javascript and step by step instructions from freecodecamp

Challenges I ran into

Finding a way to change the header based on the users' timezones

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

  1. Used Twitter API (successfully) for the first time.
  2. Troubleshot bugs in my JavaScript code.

What I learned

How to use social media APIs. Creating dynamic headers for Twitter

What's next for Birds' Words

  1. Changing headers based on Twitter users' timezone.
  2. Displaying quotes based on the time of day.
