- **Declarative** - Bottender takes care of the complexity of conversational UIs for you. Design actions for each event and state in your application, and Bottender will run accordingly. This approach makes your code more predictable and easier to debug.
- **Native User Experience** - Bottender lets you create apps on every channel and never compromise on your users’ experience. You can apply progressive enhancement or graceful degradation strategy on your building blocks.
- **Easy Setup** - With Bottender, you only need a few configurations to make your bot work with channels, automatic server listening, webhook setup, signature verification and so much more.
- **Ready for Production** - There are thousands of bots powered by Bottender. It has been optimized for real world use cases, automatic batching request and dozens of other compelling features.
Bottender is built on top of
