Inspiration

Knowledge...We wanted to learn python + scrapping

What it does

We take a public Instagram handle and scrape the page to find key words on captions to asses how common or cliche those words are.

How I built it

We used beautiful soup to pull the image alt tags for a given instagram user. HTML/JS/jquery for webapp. Python for backend.

Challenges I ran into

We've never built anything before...so we had to google things well was interesting..

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We aren't basic so obvs super proud...and it works!

What I learned
