Building Chatbots with JavaScript
summary
Step-by-step code for a working Hello World chatbot that actually replies to "hello" using Node.js, deployed on Cloud9, and authenticated with a bot token from the Cisco Spark API. The demo shows creating a developer app, copying the access token, adding environment variables, exposing a public URL, registering webhooks and getting HTTP 200 success. Source code lives on github com cisco devnet node-spark-bot-samples and the basic bot responds and is easily extended.
