Summary

A Python program using Twilio Programmable SMS and Flask is developed to organize work groups, allowing friends to text in their status updates throughout the day. The program creates a directory system where users can add themselves, set their statuses, and view others' statuses in real-time. It also includes features to keep each other accountable, such as tracking study time and break times, and providing help messages for incorrect inputs. The app is designed to be user-friendly and accessible, with an optional notification system to remind users to take breaks.
