Saving The Hackathon: Two Students Build A Twilio Powered Voting System In Minutes at HackMIT
Blog post from Twilio
Alex Chen and Jeremy Rubin, two students at MIT, built a Twilio-powered voting system in just under an hour to save HackMIT's event from collapse. The system handled over 240 votes in minutes, providing a smooth experience for participants. With Twilio, they were able to focus on building the app logic rather than worrying about integrating phone functionality, which removed stress and allowed them to work efficiently. The voting process was successful, with clear margins, but had some issues with international participation. The duo credited Twilio for their ease of use, saying it "removed a lot of stress" and enabled them to complete the task quickly.
