Emojified Tweets Wall of Fame 👌

Try out our application here!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Emojified Tweets Wall of Fame is a completely pointless app. It is a Django application that allows users to emojify tweets via our `twitter-emojify-api` Flask API, submit the results, and vote on the funniest submissions.

How it works

Wall of Fame

The Wall of Fame is a collection of the top 10 most highly voted emojified tweets. The view is a fluid carousel which is admittedly pretty fun to just scroll through.

Wall of Shame

The Wall of Shame is the same thing as the Wall of Fame, but backwards. It's a collection of the worst 10 emojified tweets. You should be ashamed if one of your submissions ends up on this wall, or we should be ashamed for not having enough users to submit emojified tweets.

Emojifying Tweets

If you want to emojify some tweets yourself, just head to the 'Emojify Tweets' page:

Enter the @ of the person's Twitter account that you want to emojify in the upper box. In the box under, enter the number of tweets you would like to emojify. The app will then emojify the most recent tweets of the person you specified.

For example, I entered the following:

joebiden

5

Once you press the button, you will be given a preview of the tweets and the tweets will be submitted for everyone's viewing. Here's what I got:

Beautiful stuff.

Setting up locally

For both

You should see (venv) at the left of the shell prompt if done correctly.

To stop the virtual environment, simply run:
