# Kamernet Puppeteer

Dutch universities do not provide accommodation, but help international students in their search. They provide services
like SSH, funda, Pararius, ROOM, ...

Kamernet is a platform where people can find home. When I began using it, I quickly understood that it is
very [competetive](ADVICE.md#competition), and it's not me who chooses a home, but a home (landlord) chooses me.

Many have said that they are looking for Dutch students, or that I am arriving too late, and they need people now, or
they say that there was a guy before me who replied earlier.

For each room, usually hundreds of people reply.

So, the most obvious solution was to write a message to every home and hope that they invite me to a viewing.

## How to use?

0.
1. Set your message in message.txt. Find advice on writing a message [here](ADVICE.md#message).
2. Set your saved search in [My searches](https://kamernet.nl/account/alerts).

1. In the `settings.js` file change the examples to your data.

2. Run the `index.js` file with node.
