Botonic
Build Chatbots and Conversational Apps Using React
What's in this document
🐣 Introduction
Botonic is a full-stack framework to create chatbots and modern conversational apps.
It's built on top of:
⚛️ React
And it works on:
💬 Messaging apps: Whatsapp, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, Twitter DMs
🌐 Your website
📱 Your mobile app
With Botonic you can focus on creating the best conversational experience for your users instead of dealing with different messaging APIs, AI/NLP complexity or managing and scaling infrastructure. It also comes with a battery of plugins so you can easily integrate popular services into your project, for instance:
- Analytics (Google Analytics, Segment, Dashbot)
- CMS (Contentful, Sanity)
- NLU (Dialogflow, Watson, Luis, Inbenta)
If you'd like to see more plugins/integrations, please submit an issue or a pull request
🚀 Getting Started
Requirements
Node (v10 or above) and NPM are required. LTS version of NodeJS Installer is recommended.
You can verify the installation running npm --version
and node --version
on a terminal.
Install
$> npm install -g @botonic/cli
Create a bot
$> botonic new myBot tutorial
Run your bot
Run your bot locally while developing:
$> cd myBot
$> botonic serve
botonic serve
is just an alias for npm run start
which will start a local server at http://localhost:8080. While you develop, the server will auto reload every time you make changes to your code.
Deploy
$> botonic deploy
