Build a Message Scheduler with Node and Vonage

What's this blog post about?

Vonage provides an API for sending SMS messages using its Messages API, which can be used to schedule messages to send at a later time. To do this, developers need a Vonage account and a virtual phone number, as well as Node.js. The Vonage CLI is used to create a new application and link the virtual phone number to it. A JavaScript file is then created to set up an Express app that handles POST requests for sending SMS messages, including scheduling them using node-cron. The app also includes front-end functionality in `index.html` to collect user input and send it to the back-end for processing.
