Originally, a server that sent an SMS alert to me reminding me to go to the gym.

Now, it's (going to be) a fully fledged reminder system. Pretty simple stuff, but let's me play with Twilio and learn ES6/Typescript.

Ok, so I need reminders to do simple things, and I have this bad habit of brushing off calendar alerts and moving things forward on my Todo list. Maybe text message alerts to do a job will get me off my butt? Banking on years of positive feedback when I see text messages to help me achieve this.

Basically, I text the system when I need to be reminded about something. It asks further questions, like when I want to be reminded, what the reminder message needs to say, until it has enough information to create a job in its queue. When the appropriate time comes around, the system reminds me to do something.

1. Get appropriate tokens and secrets. Ask Sid nicely if you wanna contribute.

2. Install your packages

$ npm install

3. Depending on if you're doing this in production or not:

$ node script.js OR $ pm2 start script.js
