Inspiration
James came up with the idea of using a messenger bot to improve people's lives.
What it does
You can message the bot asking what foods are available on a certain day in the dining hall.
How we built it
We spent a lot of time learning how bots work and specifically the workflow of Facebook's API
Challenges we ran into
We ran into a lot of problems with scraping the data online so we settled on storing the data locally.
What's next for SB Eatsbot
We are looking to improve the amount of time responses take. We would also like to integrate web scraping of the data from an online source.
