It's about 12 questions: Survey

I'm looking for someone who has:

1. a track record of developing successful mobile games (anywhere);

2. experience and knowledge on user acquisition in the Vietnamese market.

I'm currently learning about Python/APIs from Codecademy.

I'm trying to take the output from one API (for example article text from the NPR or NYTimes API) and use another API to modify the text (for example using a summarization API).

How would I go about setting that up? Thank you.

Edit: request fulfilled--thank you!
