Inspiration

I wanted to make something fun, as that's why I got into CS in the first place, and something that makes society a better place.

What it does

The user can swear into the microphone and the Google Speech-to-Text API looks for curse words. If any swear words are detected, money is added to the jar. The user can choose to donate the contents of the jar at any time to the charity of choice (Doctors Without Borders).

How I built it

Uses: Python, Google Speech-to-Text, Tkinter, PayPal, MongoDB

Challenges I ran into

The PayPal API I wanted to use was deprecated, so I had to get creative in my PayPal implementation

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Learned new technologies and finished my project

What I learned
