Twilio App to get COVID-19 Updates

What I built

Category Submission: COVID-19 Communications

I built a Twilio app that sends users the latest COVID-19 statistics for either a state or country.

Demo Link

You can try it out by texting 415-562-0796. Here is a short video demo:

Link to Code

The code is here https://github.com/programming-liftoff/twilio-covid-data/blob/master/twilio-function.js.

I also made a tutorial how this function was used in Twilio to create the complete program https://dev.to/programmingliftoff/build-a-twilio-app-to-get-covid-19-case-counts-gii.

The Stack

I built this using Twilio Functions, Twilio Studio, and this COVID-19 API https://corona.lmao.ninja/docs/.
