Background:
I'm using the react-boilerplate to build a personal website, and I would like to display my latest tweet in the footer. I do not want the embedded card, only the tweet itself (similar to the Momentum extension).
This appears to be what I am looking for: https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/get/statuses/user_timeline
Question:
How is my website supposed to authenticate with the Twitter API, without including the authentication data in the website's codebase?
Should I have an app in the middle that processes the requests, or is it possible for my website to directly retrieve my latest tweet each time a user accesses my page?
Thanks
