## Devpost submission (written by the team)

### Inspiration

This is my first hackathon, and being more familiar with the engineering side of things, I wanted to create a hardware hack.

### What it does

My product generates haikus on an LCD while also providing real-time messages.

### How we built it

I built the project using an Arduino Uno connected to a 16x2 LCD. The messages are generated using a Python script that interfaces with Discord and OpenAI's API.

### Challenges we ran into

Some issues I encountered included learning Python from scratch and debugging the concatenated strings that OpenAI provided.

### Accomplishments we're proud of

I am proud that in my first hackathon, I was able to fully create a project that I am passionate about that works effectively. Additionally, I am proud of how much I learned in such a short amount of time and how much I grew and pushed myself.

### What we learned

I gained valuable experience in programming, debugging, and the integration of hardware and software.

### What's next

for Haikus for Her Next for Haikus for Her is to create aesthetic cases and plug-and-play functionality, allowing users to customize their LCDs.
