Inspiration
The only reason I made this Chatbot is to give hope to the people who are suffering and to spread positivity during this pandemic(COVID - 19)
What it does
This is a Facebook Messenger Chatbot. It gives you LIVE COVID - 19 updates from countries all over the world and it helps you fight Depression as well. It gives you motivation to live life happily. I hope it helps people win the battle with their mind. It gives you COVID - 19 updates. You can ask it symptoms, vaccine, how does this spread?, COVID - 19 status of a specific country(It gives detailed information about the cases etc.,), covid tracker, tell me a quote, tell me a moral story, how to live happily? and you can also share your fear like: I'm afraid, I'm feeling depressed etc.,
How I built it
I used Gupshup to make this chatbot.. Gupshup : https://www.gupshup.io I used COVID - 19 live api to access the data from countries. API that I used : https://coronavirus-19-api.herokuapp.com/countries I used a bit JavaScript and finally I deployed it to Facebook Messenger
Challenges I ran into
To be precise, I did not face any challengs, I did not feel any stress while making this, rather I loved every second while making this bot, which may help people fight depression
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I'm proud that this bot helps atleast some people to overcome their fear, stress, anxiety and depression. That's enough to bring a smile on my face. I'm also happy that I learnt a lot while making this bot.
What I learned
I learned how to make a chatbot using JavaScript, Gupshup and I also learned to know me better and to help people in some way or the other.
What's next for COVID-19 LIVE UPDATES AND HELP TO FIGHT DEPRESSION CHATBOT
I can do some modifications to this so that it will be useful to many people facing stress, anxiety, loneliness and depression.
