squawkbox

This is an HTTP server that's designed to be hooked up to Twilio. Specifically, it's meant to take calls from an intercom system at the front of an apartment building, and provide value-add services, like auto-bypass codes, or saving and hosting of call recordings. A work in progress.

Prior art: tessr/doorbell.
