This the twitter bot for the laxdevtech account. @laxdevtech if you want to say hello!

Things you will need locally if you want to develop or run your own version:

• Python 3
• Twython
  • if you have pip package manager installed run $ pip install twython
  • or easy install $ easy_install twython, if you're on Mac or Linux.
  • otherwise check out the installation instructions for Twython
• Twitter API keys you can follow this guide to get started

Note: You will need a phone number to get the API keys, if you don't want to use your number you can use something like google voice and setup a second number.

note that _config.yml is configuration for github pages and is not needed for the twitterbot

1. fork this repo ( click the view on github banner in the top right )
2. clone onto your local machine
3. Once you have your API keys add them to the auth.py file.
4. run your choosen file in your shell of choice or from the terminal.
