🐱 Honeydew Devlog #2
Honeydew is slowly becoming an actual bot instead of just existing in my code editor 😭I got it to respond to different ways of asking for cat facts, like: “give me a cat fact” “tell me something about cats” “another one” “more” And instead of giving the same answer every time, it grabs new cat facts from an API 🐱✨There were definitely some moments where I thought the code was working… and then Honeydew completely ignored me 💀 But after a lot of testing, debugging, and restarting the bot approximately 500 times, it’s finally starting to feel like a real project. Next up: making Honeydew even smarter and adding more features 👀.
🍯 Honeydew Dev log #1
So… I’m making an app called Honeydew! 🚀I’ve officially set up the project, created the files, and somehow managed to get the tokens working after staring at my screen for way too long 😭There were definitely some errors along the way, including one where both of my tokens were saying false, and I genuinely thought I had broken everything 💀 But after some troubleshooting… THEY FINALLY WORKED. Next up: creating the actual index.js file — aka the part where Honeydew starts becoming an actual functioning app instead of just a folder full of files and hope. I have absolutely no idea how this is going to go, but we’re building it anyway…
