Inspiration
The inspiration for this first version was the hackathon itself. A few of our members were invited by friends that didn't show up. So we decided to create a responde sil vous plait (RSVP) service to actively call/text and or passively get call/text from customers.
What it does
It's a serverless solution using mainly twilio that allows a user to call or text a predefined number to confirm its presence on a given event. It this case we used everything fixed, but the idea on other versions is to start using variables.
How We built it
Using twilio studio, a visual programming tool.
Challenges We ran into
We hid an easter egg that tells dad jokes, it was a little bit hard to parse the json and use the output of the http get on a message, but we managed to get it place.
Accomplishments that we are proud of
It was our first time using twilio and we managed to do that on a first version.
What We learned
A little bit of python, twilio studio, javascript and json.
What's next for Twilio - RSVP
We would like to make it work with variables, actively calling and integrate it with alexa and a calendar tool like google calendar for example.
