" summary

Demonstrates how to assemble a production bot using the Azure Bot Framework with connected channels (web chat, Skype, Facebook Messenger, Slack, Cortana, Alexa), the Enterprise Bot Template that bundles content moderation, telemetry and multi-environment bot files, and local testing in the emulator. Shows language models with LUIS language understanding, adaptive cards, Power BI reporting, and storage choices (blob or Cosmos DB). Describes mixing JS/Python/C# code, multi-language support, and how the template routes intents, falls back to human handoff, and logs unanswered queries.
