πŸͺ° Google Apps Script homework helper.

This project uses Google Apps Script with Clasp, TypeScript, and MediaWiki to create a homework helper that pulls definitions from Wikipedia to help with defining lists.

This project was inspired by a homework project one of my friends had for art history where she had to define terms. This helped her to understand the terms that she had to learn.
