Building a Turkey Timer with Laravel, Facebook Messenger and Vonage

This project involves building a Laravel application that maintains a collection of recipes and sends notifications when it's time to perform specific actions in the kitchen. The application uses Vonage's Messages API to receive inbound messages from Facebook, WhatsApp, or Viber, and sends responses back to the user at the correct time using Laravel's notification system. The application is designed to be extensible and can be easily integrated with other messaging platforms. To use the application, a Facebook page needs to be linked to Vonage, a new Vonage application needs to be created, and webhooks need to be configured. The project provides a comprehensive guide on how to set up the application, including setting up Laravel notifications, configuring Vonage authentication credentials, and sending updates to Facebook. Once the application is running, users can send messages with recipe names, and the application will respond with the next action to take at the correct time.
