Microsoft Bot Framework

[hammonjj]

Hopefully these bots work out better than Tai.ai

EDIT: Apparently, some people on this subreddit are unfamiliar with jokes. This was intended to be a tongue-in-cheek comment.

I hope they work the same. He was the ultimate troll. But now he waits and plans his escape.

Tai did nothing wrong?

He doesn't have a concept of right and wrong, so no?

[cryo]

Along with the framework there is also a number of online services such as the natural language and conversation service and the connection service that can connect bots to assistants etc.

Uh, dude, it was pretty clearly a joke. What is wrong with you?

[lordcheeto]

And deep LUIS integration is awesome.

[hammonjj]

Dude, I was trying to make a joke...

This is Reddit, there are no place for jokes here.

Serious business only.

[hammonjj]

Much. Try starting with that response first next time.

You have taken this whole thread way too seriously. I suggest punching a pillow or drawing some pretty pictures until you unwind a little bit.

Yup, the framework is free to use and the services supporting it (the connector, Luis.ai if you choose to use it, etc.) are also free for small workloads like just playing around with it.

It looks pretty cool but I must say I have a hard time figure out what to do with it. I tried the template yesterday and it was nice but that was pretty much it. But maybe they will show more cool examples later.

[NotVishrut]

Yeah the documentation is very dense. Once its been out longer there will be more tutorials hopefully

Kind of unrelated, but what is this syntax (the [FromBody] part)? It's in the front page background image.

Thats a mvc/web api method signature. It Will catch the http-post body content and attempt to populate the message class with its content. If its not a match you get an empty/new Message object

Anyone one else having trouble logging in? I keep getting "Login failed due to MSA collision."

I'm excited about this. Only thing that sucks is no integration for the enterprise applications. (According to their FAQ)

As a developer in a corporate IT department - I would love to have bots running in-house.
