What I made:
An interactive Koenigsegg Slack Bot packed with a visual Koenigsegg configuration garage, live FIA Formula 1 driver standings, and live tracking telemetry connections to NASA orbital servers.
What was challenging:
Debugging the complex API JSON response structures for the live sports data blocks and fixing severe asynchronous timeout bugs on the NASA server network calls. Handling the state of multiple concurrent users configuring hypercars without their choices bleeding into each other was also a puzzle.
What I’m proud of:
Upgrading a basic plain-text chatbot into a premium visual UI using Slack’s premium two-column Block Kit grid fields, and successfully deploying the entire app stack onto Hack Club Nest as a permanent, crash-proof 24/7 background systemd daemon service!
How to test it:
