About This Project
Overview
Updates Bot is a Discord automation tool I built to streamline daily internship updates. Instead of manually formatting messages, you can drop your raw update and the bot leverages Gemini AI to craft a perfectly formatted post. Additionally, it stores your GitHub access token securely and automatically reads your daily git commit messages at 7 AM, sending them as updates to the designated Discord channel. Currently deployed on Vercel, the bot is built for efficiency, automation, and stress-free daily reporting.
Motivation
Every project starts with a problem worth solving. For Updates Bot, the motivation came from wanting to streamline workflows and create something that genuinely helps users save time. The goal was to build a solution that is not just functional, but delightful to use.
Lessons Learned
Building Updates Bot taught me valuable lessons about system design, user experience, and the importance of iterative development. Each challenge became an opportunity to grow as a developer and problem solver.
