How it works ?

User tags @threadunni bot under the thread to be saved
Threadunni fetches the thread using twitter api and saves it in the dashboard as a blog post (usually takes about 3 minutes for the bot to reply)
User logins to the dashboard using twitter and can view his saved threads or download them as a PDF document

Features

Pull tagged threads from twitter using twitter API
Read and Save threads as a blog post
Download threads as a PDF
Social Login Using Twitter
