This tutorial describes how to build a chess progress monitor using Twilio Serverless and SMS. The project uses the chess.com API, which provides public data such as player profiles, game data, and club or tournament information. To get started, users need to create a Twilio account, install Postman and Node.js, and make a chess.com API request to retrieve a user's profile information. Next, they use the Twilio Serverless Toolkit to create a new project, install required dependencies, and make a Twilio Function with JavaScript that sends a text message containing the user's rapid chess record information. Finally, users configure their function with a Twilio phone number and share it with friends, allowing them to track their progress on chess.com.
