Source My SMS

Coding anytime, anywhere, in your pocket. We want to revolutionize the way people code. Coding in modern pretty languages is outdated we want to fix that. We are creating a new programming paradigm.

Inspiration

We were inspired by the programming language BF we wanted to create something that was just as powerful that could compute the graphics that you see on the screen right now. We also wanted to make it super unique so we decided the only way a user can run their code is via SMS messages.

What it does

Our project lets you run our custom scripting language called Meow Script only via SMS. Meow Script is a turning complete programming language. You manipulate a tape by using different variations of the word "meow" . We additionally provided some python examples to show how much more powerful how project could be in the future.

How we built it

We used Twilio to allow us to get user input. This input is then computed with our backend. MeowScript was built using C.

Challenges we ran into

We had a hard time setting up Twilio to get the user commands. We also had trouble getting to send messages back to the users. Finally getting the C code to work with different cases was a troubling task.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of getting the Twilio to work and allowing users to input text. Getting to see the C code to work made us really happy.

What we learned

We learned how to handle flow of users depending on what message they send us.

What's next for Source My SMS

We are going to build more programming languages for people to use via SMS. We are also going to allow more functionality for regular languages.
