Twitter Feed and Link on the Left

Please insert it after the navigation inside a div with a meaningful class name

This is a problem. We can't access the twitter API without authentification, but this is hard with only frontend code. @basiljs/basil-js-core-members Any ideas or do we need the feed on the side?

@fabianmoronzirfas What about using like TwitRSS to generate a "public" RSS feed (for an easy access to the feed with front-end only code)? https://twitrss.me/twitter_user_to_rss/?user=basil_js

I also thought about setting something up with IFTTT or have somewhere an little node app running that does the auth. (On some Heroku or Zeit free account) The RSS service seems nice BUT:

Das sogenannte „Scraping” der Dienste ist ohne vorherige Genehmigung von Twitter ausdrücklich untersagt),

So this might be shut down at some random point.

[b-g]

True ... but this might take a long time :)

[ff6347]

Yeah. That's right. I'll take a look into both. If I can build something future proof I go for that.

BTW. We have been using https://github.com/j7mbo/twitter-api-php with the http://www.generative-gestaltung.de/1/ site ... to pull the twitter feed for years now (without any maintenance).

Created a micro-service on https://basiljs-latest-tweets.now.sh/
See the source here https://basiljs-latest-tweets.now.sh/_src Would be cool to have a repo here on the basil account for the source. @b-g do you have admin rights? Could you create one where I have upload this stuff?

[b-g]

@fabianmoronzirfas Nice + 🙏! Yes I do have admin rights and can create a repo for it. Provide the repo name and I will take care of it. Maybe simply basiljs-latest-tweets?

[ff6347]

I would go for latest-tweets the basiljs in the repo name is redundant. IMHO

[b-g]

Done: https://github.com/basiljs/latest-tweets
