Hey! This issue seems interesting.

I would like to try it out. But I would need some guidance along the way. Let me know if you're in :)

Hey @KushalBhanot, Thank you for your support 😄

So, there are two parts to it, the backend and the frontend.

The backend work is already done by a friend of mine in this repo but it has some limitations:

1. it uses a headless browser of generating the image, this causes a 4-5s response time, an alternative could be an SVG version that does not require a headless browser
2. it uses Twitter's Official API so there is a limit on the number of API calls

The frontend work is to create a new field component under /src/components/fields/... that will fetch tweet images from this link https://tweets-as-an-image.herokuapp.com/tweet?twitterHandle=iamrishavanand

Feel free to take up any of the part. I'm here if you need anything.

While cloning the repo on my Mac, I got this error: The authenticity of host 'github.com (13.234.176.102)' can't be established. RSA key fingerprint is SHA256:nThbg6kXUpJWGl7E1IGOCspRomTxdCARLviKw6E5SY8. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])?

What should I do now?

[rishavanand]

typing yes should be enough

I tried again and it cloned without throwing any error.

I'll take up the front-end work since there are a lot of technologies here.

Okay perfect, #15 will be a good guide for you.
