Your Country

Want to make the same thing for your country? There's a Python script located here, just clone it, and follow the instructions. You will still need to setup access to the Twitter API and a Heroku application. This whole process should take maximum 15 minutes if you're familiar with the Twitter API and Heroku.

Or.. Fork the repository. Go to bot.js and, on line #19, change "Canada" to the name of your country. Beforehand, you will need to setup access to the Twitter API and a Heroku application. Additionally, if you want your bot to retweet your goverment's latest COVID-related tweet, change "CanadianPM" on line #11 of retweet.js to your government/government leader's Twitter username.

❤️ Stay safe, & lots of love from Canada. ❤️
