Cool Quote Fetcher

Inspiration

I have been looking forward to build my own tools to help with basic networking and security related mundane tasks.

What it does

The program, named "Cool Quote Fetcher," fetches and displays programming-related quotes in a visually appealing format. Users argparse to handle arguments in the terminal. The program then queries an online API to retrieve a random programming quote, formats it within a stylized box, and prints it to the console. The script repeats this process at regular intervals, as specified by the user, providing a continuous stream of inspirational quotes. To enhance the user experience, the script clears the console before displaying each new quote, ensuring a clean and focused presentation. The program can be terminated successfully by the user using Ctrl+C, with a corresponding exit message.

What we learned

Building applications to run in the terminal

What's next for Cool Quote Fetcher

Building a File Integrity Monitor (FIM) tool which I will actually use during future penetration testing engagements.
