Chatbots and voice user interfaces are two flavors of conversational UIs. Chatbots are real-time, data-driven answer engines that talk in natural language and are context-aware. Voice user interfaces are driven by voice and can understand and respond to users using speech. This book covers both types of conversational UIs by leveraging APIs from multiple platforms. We'll take a project-based approach to understand how these UIs are built and the best use cases for deploying them. We'll start by building a simple messaging bot from the Facebook Messenger API to understand the basics of bot building. Then we move on to creating a Task model that can perform complex tasks such as ordering and planning events with the newly-acquired-by-Google Dialogflow and Microsoft Bot framework. We then turn to voice-enabled UIs that are capable of interacting with users using speech with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. By the end of the book, you will have created your own line of chatbots and voice UIs for multiple leading platforms.What you will learnDesign the flow of conversation between the user and the chatbotCreate Task model chatbots for implementing tasks such as ordering foodGet new toolkits and services in the chatbot ecosystemIntegrate third-party information APIs to build interesting chatbots Find out how to deploy chatbots on messaging platformsBuild a chatbot using MS Bot FrameworkSee how to tweet, listen to tweets, and respond using a chatbot on TwitterPublish chatbots on Google Assistant and Amazon AlexaWho This Book Is ForThis book is for developers who are interested in creating interactive conversational UIs/Chatbots.
