IoT for the Introvert
summary
A tiny Flic button triggers an Azure Functions webhook that uses the Twilio voice API and SMS to place a believable call or send an SOS text; calls play an MP3 (demo used Rick Astley) so recipients answer. Setup uses JavaScript on a consumption plan, Twilio phone number, and environment-stored credentials; deployment and local testing via the Azure portal works and demo videos show successful calls and texts. Code and MP3s are open source on GitHub.
