You got excited??

How did I make it
We can send whatsapp message from Android app or from whatsapp web. Making an automatic-message-sender Android app seemed a lot of work to me. So I chose second way :relieved: . Initially I thought writing some javascript code in browser console will do the work but I got stuck in middle. Idea is to simulate 'message-typing' and 'sending' like real user on WhatsApp Web. To see this approach please see whatsapp.js file. If you get it working please do ping me :grin:
Since all I had to do is simulation, I can also do it on OS Level. I chose Java for it. I used java.awt.Robot class
for this purpose and this was my 2nd working approach. See Video to feel it.
What's next?
You can make a chatbot which will be able to respond to incoming messages wisely.
