Last week Dev.to announced a hackathon in collaboration with Twilio to make a web app using any of the Twilio API, So I decided to participate and build something in this quarantine time which will help me learn some new tech and build a project to showcase.
So I started brainstorming for an idea to create an app for and just then I heard my mother saying that we are privileged to have an Internet service which helps us getting latest news and updates in this Covid-19 lockdown period but for those who doesn't have this privilege, It's hard to get information about new cases in their state as well as in the country.And bingo!! I got the idea to create my web app.
I decided to create a web app in which user can register with their phone number once and they can get daily updates of new cases in their area as well as in the country with the help of Twilio Programmable SMS API
