1. This project uses tweepy which is a Python library for accessing the Twitter API.
2. We use tweepy to get the mentions for our bot.
3. And using that mention, the thread/tweet is saved to a string along with the user who mentioned the bot.
4. The saved variables are pushed to an SQL database using sqlalchemy library.
5. The bot also sends a DM to the user with the thread(You have to follow the bot for DM to work)

1. The website uses flask.
2. The website has a twitter login through which we get an userid of Twitter user.
