Let Me Ask My Butler

LMAMB is a clone of Let Me Google That with one small difference, a nod to the classic search engine AskJeeves.

Here's a mock up I made, which may be aniamted in the future. A Gif

Senario:

Your friend asks you a question online, you don't know the awnser but your butler might:

  1. You 'ask your butler' and enter a query.
  2. Sharable link is generated, send to a friend.
  3. When the link so open the web page 'mimics' your actions:
    a). Mouse moves to click the form and waits idle.
    b). Your search query is typed in one character at a time.
    c). The cursor lazily pans over and submits the search.
  4. The page redirects.

Things I still need to work on:

  1. Clean up JavaScript.
  2. More suitable bottom padding solution.
  3. Adding links to Github and contact, ect.
  4. Setting up the environment varaible properly and finding a better way to test so that I don't have to commit code to see the changes.
  5. Buying a proper domain?
  6. Further optimisation and code clean.
