Currently I'm running this bot on a 1GB DigitalOcean instance (Use that link to get a free VPS for 2 months). The bot is not resource-intensive and uses a couple dozen MBs of RAM.

• Python 2+
• pip

Create a file called config.py that looks like config_example.py. Fill in the necessary values.

For Twitter config:

1. Register your app
2. Get your app's key and secret.
3. Create token and get the token and secret by running oauth.py

Then, to run the bot:
