Bot Prerequisites

This bot has prerequisites that must be installed in order for the bot to function properly.

This document will enumerate the required prerequisites and show how to install them.

Overview

This bot uses LUIS, an AI based cognitive service, to implement language understanding. The Bot Framework provides a set of CLI tools that will help setup LUIS so the bot can be run and tested locally. Additionally, prerequisites are provided that will enable the bot to be deployed to Azure using additional CLI tools.
