A simple NodeJS app to store Tweets about app ideas with MongoDB
This project allows you to get Twitter updates which could give you ideas for a new app or startup with only 70 lines of Javascript, and an HTML file to display the tweets from the Twitter stream.
Since we’re retrieving data from a stream, we may be storing information for multiple tweets at a time so we’ll be using MongoDB.
While this is not meant for production, this would be a good base to expand further to work on apps which involve analyzing data from Tweets. It will also be a good intro for those interested to learn about Twit and Socket.io.
This project is not recommended to be in production
