SlackyBOT
This project was built during the StarDance Hack Club challenge.

- The reviewer thought the banner image was AI-generated, but I actually created it myself in Canva. Here’s the proof: https://canva.link/ta6t6khrmwuwpps
I made SlackyBOT because I wanted to understand how Slack apps and slash commands work. Along the way, I added features like Gemini AI, weather updates, memes, jokes, and other small commands just for fun and learning.
Why I create this project?
This project was created to learn:
- Slack Bot Development
- API Integration
- AI Integration
- Error Handling
- Async JavaScript
- Deploying and hosting applications using Hack Club Nest
Developed as part of the StarDance Hack Club challenge.
