Project Story: TextFightClub

Inspiration

We honestly couldn’t think of a groundbreaking idea for this hackathon, so we embraced the silliest concept we could imagine: AI bots roasting each other. It started as a joke, but we thought, why not actually make it a reality? We wanted something fun, interactive, and lighthearted that would entertain users and let AI do the heavy lifting.

What it does

TextFightClub is a web app where two AI bots battle it out in a roast war. Users provide a topic, and the bots exchange witty, dynamic insults for multiple rounds. The result is a hilarious, chat-style interface showing the back-and-forth battle, powered entirely by AI-generated responses.

How we built it

Backend: .NET Web API that communicates with Gemini AI to generate bot responses.
Frontend: React app displaying the conversation in a chat-style interface.
Workflow: User submits a topic → backend sends prompts to AI → AI responses returned → frontend displays the conversation dynamically.
Tech: Gemini AI API, .NET 8, React, Node.js.

Challenges we ran into

Handling API rate limits, as multiple bot responses in rapid succession could trigger errors.
Integrating React frontend with .NET backend smoothly.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Successfully implemented a working AI-powered roast battle.
Made the idea, which started as a silly joke, into a fully functional hackathon project.
Built a full-stack application in a short time with seamless backend-frontend communication.

What we learned

How to integrate AI APIs into a web application.
Managing full-stack projects with separate frameworks.
That even the silliest ideas can become reality if you commit to building them.

What's next for TextFightClub

Add more bot personalities and different roasting styles.
Enable users to customize rounds, topics, and bot behavior.
Possibly turn it into a full-fledged entertainment app with social sharing features.
