Twindred!

An independent project for the purposes of learning Python.

This Flask App began with the noblest of intentions--to find kindred spirits using sentiment analysis and the Twitter API. But language is a fickle thing, and the best laid plans were led astray by sarcasm.

Instead, I present a project which enables you to randomly walk through related hashtags with the click of a button. Why? Because it turns out a hashtag says more than any of the characters around it.

Technologies

  • Flask
  • Python 2.7.13
  • Postgres
  • Twitter API

Deployment notes

Originally deployed on AWS elastic beanstalk, but now only available on localhost due to financial concerns.

Potential improvements

  • map of selected Tweets
  • better sentiment analysis
  • testing
