  • A Facebook Developer account: https://developers.facebook.com/

  • A free level Recime account

  • A free level Github account (optional)

Additional Details:

Bootcamp Saturday afternoon 2pm - 4pm:

Learn the basics of building NPL and AI based bots for Facebook and Slack. The kickoff boot camp will teach you the ins and outs of bot development with natural language support (NLP) and publish your bots to various platforms with the same code-base and with no effort for maximum productivity.

Typically building bots requires a developer to spin up their own Node server, wire up the corresponding SDKs, manually integrate NPL, fiddle with API access tokens, and then host it all somewhere by yourself. Luckily we’ve partnered with Recime, a platform for building bots that take cares of all of that plumbing for you so you can focus only on building bots.

Hackathon Starts 5pm Saturday:

(Almost) everything goes, as long as it is legal, decent and ethical, so rebuild something you already did, or build something new, an example is a Pipedrive Slack connection.

We will invite some local product development people that are available to brainstorm with you if you are out of ideas. We will also showcase the best bots on our platform.

Parisoma is available 24 hours during the event.

Hackathon Resumes Sunday Morning:

Then at 4pm, Show and Tell of al Bots with detailed feedback from a panel of experts

This botathon is for two-way learning purposes only, so no extensive presentations, investor pitches, big prizes or 1-2-3 rankings. Just showing off what you learned and built and an opportunity to get feedback from your peers.
