Have you ever wondered how chat bots are made?

Why are chat bots the next big trend?

How can I build chat bots that are cool?

If you ever wanted to understand the space of Bots or build them yourself, then take my course聽“How to Build Chat Bots: From Beginner to Intermediate”. I聽designed it in a practical way so that when you finish the content you can immediately put it into use.锟?/p>

Now, why should you build bots?

Bots are the next big trend according to media journals, silicon valley companies, and web developers. The barrier of entry to build a bot is low enough, but the amount of traction you can get is enormous. This is why startups like Slack have built a billion dollar business around it. Now, we are in the early stages of this trend and in order to stay ahead you must learn a thing or two about bots. More importantly, how to build bots which I teach in this course.

This course contains over 20聽lectures and 1.5 hrs of content. It’s designed for beginners to play with new platforms in the bot space.聽You鈥檒l learn the tools needed to build the bots, how the inner workings of bots, how to map a user conversation, and market your bot to your friends.

Course Structure

The course follows a familiar structure where in each video I will teach the concepts followed by the student applying the concepts practically. If your goal is to become a better developer, you should understand node.js, server side development聽and how to access certain APIs to build better bots. The course does not go deep into API integration of聽bot responses. This means we won’t be building complex models, AI driven bots, or multiple API driven bots. That would be for an expert course.锟?/p>

Environment Setup

This course aims to simulate a live in-person course as much as possible. After you finish each lecture, you should practice and try the solution on your own. You learn the best by practicing and doing.锟?/p>

Projects

At the end of each section, you will be asked to complete a bot聽which you can聽then share with your network or on the Udemy network.锟?/p>
