I made a slack bot which has 4-5 different commands it can track and gives a leaderboard of people with most commits in temrs of 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Also has a command which gives extra coordinates of place in terms of latitude and longtiude. The main is space once which has a from sample list of planets in readme it can give you a random pic and random fact of the planet. The things I found challenging were to host 24/7 on nest which i did by giving nest permissions to don't terminate my background process when i close powershell. Also putting bootprint space package into my api was also challenging. I am proud of my coordinate map command and github commit history leaderboard command and the fact that my app is 24/7
