SUMMARY
In the Spring of 2020, I took part in the Google Software Product Sprint (SPS) — an invite-only and 11-week virtual program where participants design and build open-source software using the Google Cloud Platform, and collaborate in team projects using Git and GitHub. Vibe Checker is a web app that I worked on independently during the 4-week personal project portion of the sprint.
WHAT IS VIBE CHECKER?
Vibe Checker is a web app that interprets the emotion expressed in the comments, and it can be used to help online creators determine how their audience feels about the subject being shown — whether it be an image, video, post or article.
