What's the tech stack behind it? Just curious, it takes me days/weeks to get any ideas out due to tech choice paralysis

- carmen_sandiego 5y agoLooks like Nuxt/Vue sitting on S3 with CloudFront as CDN. Presumably with some script on the backend to update the list of Tweets on S3. /vaguely informed guessing
- mulhoon 5y agoYup, It's one simple lambda function that reads the JSON file from S3, searches twitter for new tweets since the latest, appends new ones and writes back to S3. Cron'd every minute.
- tracyhenry 5y agoThis is awesome! What is the strategy to identify the idea tweets? It looks like some string matching, but I'm not sure.
- mulhoon 5y agoYes, nothing too special. There are 6 or 7 string matches e.g. "I need an app that" (minus retweets). But also retrieving referenced tweets.
