Twitter++

Inspiration

I took inspiration from Apple's shortcut app as well as Twitter's own recommendations.

What it does

It uses special algorithms to calculate a user or tweet's relevancy score. Additionally it includes a Blockly editor that translates blocks into Twitter API calls

How I built it

I built it on the backed using Firebase as a cacheing layer and Node.js for scripting. On the frontend, I developed a Blockly editor customized with methods to execute in the backend.

Challenges I ran into

I ran into many challenges, mostly with the Account Activity API, as well as when trying to develop a Google Chrome extension. Likewise I ran into time issues due to my poor internet connectivity at the last moment :(

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I am proud about the progress made and I think it can be extended even further with help from a team.
