AFKChatBot

Inspiration

Out-of-office emails, but for Messenger.

What it does

Waits for a new message to be received on Messenger and responds to it based on your Google Calendar. If you're busy

How I built it

We used Python to connect to Facebook Messenger and the Google Calendar API. If a user is currently in an event, the bot takes over and responds for them!

Challenges I ran into

Installing some python packages is _ somewhat _ challenging when there are conflicts between version dependencies.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

It works! (On my machine) Karl Southern

What we learned

We need to learn more flask and APIs!

What's next for AFKChatBot

Incorporate TensorFlow and train, to improve conversational ability of bot. Add more features for different calendar events.
