Description

This is totes just for kicks.

The idea is to automatically post a link to civictechto twitter when it gets a certain number of reaction emoji. So for example, auto-post link when it gets 5 thumbs-up

Could just use the link title as the Tweet content: https://github.com/sindresorhus/article-title

Research direction

Start by reading the linked src/slack.coffee entry point and the referenced hubot-slack resources. Clarify the reaction threshold and Twitter destination, then determine how the article-title utility fits the flow. Done means qualifying links from #civictechnews are automatically posted with their titles as tweet content.
