Threadunni

Open source web app and twitter bot that lets you read threads more easily and document them

Made by @mdb571⚡ & @bmnidhin:rocket:

How it works ?

• User tags @threadunni bot under the thread to be saved
• Threadunni fetches the thread using twitter api and saves it in the dashboard as a blog post (usually takes about 3 minutes for the bot to reply)
• User logins to the dashboard using twitter and can view his saved threads or download them as a PDF document

Features

• Pull tagged threads from twitter using twitter API
• Read and Save threads as a blog post
• Download threads as a PDF
