Introduction: Follower and Subscriber Counter
This project made for counting instagram follower and youtube subscriber..
platform are used:
Python
Arduino
Step 1: Materials / Tools:
- Arduino uno
- Lcd Shield
- Programing cable
- Windows PC
Step 2: Create Api Keys
For instagram Api
GO To This Website :https://instagram.pixelunion.net/
and push generate access token
For youtube Api
You Can Follow The Steps From this website : https://www.slickremix.com/docs/get-api-key-for-yo...
Step 3: Upload Sketch to Arduino
You Can Download Code And Programs From My Github Page:
https://github.com/ayberkeren/social-media-counter
Arduino Code:
<p>#include

String youtube_name = ""; //your youtube name
String youtube_token = ""; //your youtube token
String instagram_token =""; //your instagram token
unsigned long DELAY= 10; //delay between to screen (seconds)
//set lcd screen pins
const int rs = 8, en = 9, d4 = 4, d5 = 5, d6 = 6, d7 = 7;
LiquidCrystal lcd(rs, en, d4, d5, d6, d7);
//create variables
unsigned long follower = 0,follower2=0,subscriber=0,subscriber2=0,x=millis();
//create bytes for logos

Step 4: Python
I made 2 python program one of thes have a graphical user interface the other one only works on bash
you can use both of them actually they making same things.
you should choose which port you plugged arduino from the list and push select button.
and you are DONE....
Download Programs From My Github : https://github.com/ayberkeren/SOCIAL-MEDIA-COUNTER
and the codes are below......
Step 5: DONE....
CONGRATULATIONS....
