# What is Twitter Wrap?

Twitter Wrap works similarly to Spotify Wrapped, which shows your usage of Spotify over the past year. Twitter Wrap does the same thing, but for Twitter.

# Why did I built it?

I was unaware of Spotify Wrapped until this year, so I wanted to use that right away, but it kept crashing, so I had to wait a solid amount of time to get my year wrap. Then I got an idea to build a Twitter version of this app, so I started developing it. I built the app in public and tweeted my progress on my twitter as well. It's also on my mind to write a blog on it, so if you'd like to learn more, you can view it on my blog.

Love the app? Bribe me to work on more projects just like this one :)

# Is the data incorrect?

Some users may find that the data isn't accurate; you might see fewer numbers for the year than what they should be. This is because the app uses the endpoints of the Twitter API that have a monthly cap, so to let as many users use the app, I've had to make sure that the app doesn't crash after a certain amount of time. Nevertheless, the information is not wrong. However, instead of retrieving the data for a whole year, the period of time could be shorter.

# Images won't load?

If you're having trouble, disable the browser tracking protection or any adblock extension you're using since the image urls coming from the twitter API are regarded as trackers, and can be blocked by default in some browsers.

# Got an 500 Internal server error?

The error code 500 is a general catch-all code, but if you are receiving it, it is most likely the Twitter API is already maxed out.
