A slackbot that will automatically generate random lunch groups based on who hasn't had lunch together before. It will also generate restaurant ideas based on location and dietary restrictions. It helps people meet new people and boosts morale.
Problem I'm trying to stop is exclusivity around the workplace. The more people interact with each together, the better the working environment will be.
By generating random groups based on who hasn't been grouped together before ensures that you're meeting someone new every week. Also by suggesting places to eat based on dietary restrictions no one will be excluded.
Companies and schools with lots of people who need to interact with each other. This is a great way for companies to have a more inclusive workplace.
- The slack api for sure, also probably work with Yelp or something api that can provide restaurant suggestions.
- If slack has oauth, I'll use that. Otherwise I'll look into a yelp oauth. Or possibly a twitter oauth..
