Want to help build a chatbot for Drupal Slack? Chatbot hack night on Tuesday.
Tomorrow night is a hack night at the MN Bot Makers meetup. I'm planning to hack on the Dragonbot used by the Backdrop CMS community. I've heard rumor that there MIGHT also be interest in having a chatbot in the main Drupal Slack channel. I don't think they have one yet.
Maybe we need one for our TCDrupal Slack channel.
My point is - that if you are interested in learning about chatbots and your interested in contributing something back to the Drupal community, this might be an interesting opportunity. If you want to hack on your own chatbot, that's cool too!
