Inspiration
Trumpify It! is a humorous take on an engaging conversation with your favourite - or perhaps, not-so-favourite - personality of choice. Instead of canned responses, your deepest thoughts and questions will be met with such character.
What it does
Trumpify It! re-vamps the generic chat bot experience for a more tailored response.
How we built it
Trumpify It! was built using Node.js, React, Redux, Firebase, Google Cloud Compute Engine, Python, and Flask.
Challenges we ran into
Some of the challenges we encountered include trying to find an alternative implementation to Dialogflow as well as deciding on a backend. We also ran into some issues with calling the backend API from within React. Other challenges involve deciding which features to implement.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud of the fact that we've used various trending technologies (such as Cloud and AI) to create a fun and unique chatting experience. We've also thought quite a bit regarding our user interface.
What we learned
We found the Dialogflow workshop to be rather enlightening, albeit there were some technical issues at the end which stopped us from implementing it. We've also learned other technical skills regarding React and Firebase, as well as social skills.
What's next for Western Hack
The next step for this would be acquire a bigger dataset of potential questions and answers so as to adopt more characters into the chatting experience.
