This will be a design and build workshop that re-imagines the trending articles widget common on many websites today (sidebar right) using facebook reactions data. To kick things offs, we will do a quick overview of the CrowdTangle API, then we will set up a live feed of your website’s content sorted by Facebook reactions (like, love, angry, haha, wow, sad) and/or with Twitter data. After that, you will dive into designing and building your widget.
