Hey everyone, creator of the framework here. Just a short gist of why we made this.. We wanted:<p><pre><code> * Support for any messaging service
* Support for the all of the great NLP/NLU tools being released
* Ability to use your own code editor
* Easy handling of common scenarios (like when a bot fails to understand a user)
* Deployable anywhere
* Open source
* Support for popular databases
* Support for developer tooling (e.g., CircleCI and Travis, GitHub, Heroku Pipelines, etc)
* Testing
</code></pre>
Let me know if anyone has questions. Happy to answer.
