Summary

A user, Devin Rader, created a system using Azure Logic Apps and Twilio SMS to send daily text messages with SpaceX launch alerts. The workflow uses the SpaceX API to retrieve the next launch date, parses it, and checks if it's a launch day. If it is, the workflow sends a text message with details about the launch; otherwise, it sends a message stating that no rockets are launching today. The system can be built using a free Azure account and a trial Twilio Account, and it showcases the potential of Logic Apps to create custom workflows using various connectors and APIs.
