Augmented Twitter API

Update 05/17/15:

Project is live on Heroku

This project consists in building an API and a web page to search for Twitter profiles and return augmented data about them.

The only requirement is to separate the front-end from the backend you will build. (ie the back-end can only serve JSON and the front-end is a JS/HTML app that will call the API to get dynamic data)

You’re free to use the languages, frameworks and libraries of your choice. There is no need to setup a database.

###Here are the different steps of completion of the project:

1. Build the initial API and the web page that allow users to search for a twitter handle and returns its profile info and latest tweets

2. Deploy it online

3. Allow users to filter tweets by number of re-tweets, by dates, with or without picture.

4. Write tests for it

5. Create a numeric “reputation score” (eg 750Pts) for each profile. This score should be based on the # of followers, the content of the tweets and the followers scores.

Here is a list of positive words that will have a positive influence on the score:
