    ChatterBot

    ChatterBot

    Machine learning, conversational dialog engine for creating chat bots

    ChatterBot is a Python library that makes it easy to generate automated responses to a user’s input. ChatterBot uses a selection of machine learning algorithms to produce different types of responses. This makes it easy for developers to create chat bots and automate conversations with users. For more details about the ideas and concepts behind ChatterBot see the process flow diagram. The language independent design of ChatterBot allows it to be trained to speak any language. Additionally, the machine-learning nature of ChatterBot allows an agent instance to improve it’s own knowledge of possible responses as it interacts with humans and other sources of informative data. An untrained instance of ChatterBot starts off with no knowledge of how to communicate. Each time a user enters a statement, the library saves the text that they entered and the text that the statement was in response to. As ChatterBot receives more input the number of responses that it can reply increase.

    Discord-Sandbox

    Discord-Sandbox

    Alternative electron-based Discord client with custom telemetry

    Are you worried Discord is watching what programs you have open or listening to your mic even while you're not pressing your push-to-talk key? Discord-Sandbox isolates the Discord client from reading background processes by running the Discord web client inside of a webview, which is finally contained inside the Electron process. While I cannot guarantee this client protects you from anything, I have tried my best to remove Discord's data collection. As detailed from Luna Mendes' discord-unofficial-docs, Discord sends telemetry data over the /api/science endpoint. This project does its best to disable this telemetry communication by running javascript code into the webview that adds a blacklist/whitelist to the default XMLHttpRequest behavior. In this way, we explicitly block all communication with the science address, while simultaneously whitelisting addresses needed for minimum Discord functionality. See the full code in mainRender.js.

    Goofy

    Goofy

    Desktop client for Facebook Messenger

    Goofy is a macOS client for Facebook Messenger. But unlike most other clients, it does not use any of Facebook's APIs, but is basically a single-site browser that injects a little CSS and JS into messenger.com to make it a little more app-like. Feel free to create issues on this repo for feature requests of any kind. However, some features may not be possible due to the way this application is working. Also, I don't want this to be a feature-bloated monster, but a slick and small app. Depending on the number of contributors and the progress of this app, I will schedule releases from time to time, which will then be distributed on goofyapp.com. To debug, there's a VSCode launch.json that can be used to debug the Electron app. To debug the Facebook JavaScript changes you'll need to use the Chrome Web Inspector.

    Official Android SDK for Stream Chat

    Official Android SDK for Stream Chat

    Android Chat SDK ➜ Stream Chat API. UI component libraries for chat

    This is the official Android SDK for Stream Chat, a service for building chat and messaging applications. This library includes both a low-level chat SDK and a set of reusable UI components. Most users start with the UI components and fall back to the lower-level API when they want to customize things. We're proud to say that we're the first Android Chat SDK that supports Jetpack Compose! We released our Compose UI Components one day after the official Jetpack Compose 1.0 release and our team members have been working hard on it since then. Now it's mature and stable enough for us to officially recommend it for all new applications and all modern chat implementations. If you're looking for something highly customizable and extremely performant, check out our Compose SDK.

    Webogram

    Webogram

    Telegram web application, GPL v3

    Telegram offers great apps for mobile communication. It is based on the MTProto protocol and has an Open API. I personally like Telegram for its speed and cloud-support (that makes a web app possible, unlike in the case of WA and others). MTProto data can be carried over HTTP (SSL is also supported), so this project is my take at creating one. Hosted version: the app is downloaded via HTTPS as a usual website. Will be available offline due to application cache. Packed version, the app is downloaded at once in a package via HTTPS. The package is updated less frequently than the Web-version. The app is based on the AngularJS JavaScript framework, and written in pure JavaScript. jQuery is used for DOM manipulations, and Bootstrap as the CSS-framework. The project repository is based on angularjs-seed and includes gulp tasks, so it's easy to launch the app locally on your desktop.

    Astro Boy Chat Room

    Astro Boy Chat Room

    Atom chat room nestjs+vue full stack chat room

    In my spare time, I wanted to make a chat room to consolidate front-end skills, so I started the development journey of Astro chat room on June 24, 2020. The project is developed in full typescript, which is to lay the foundation for future functional iterations. Of course, I also like typescript very much. At present, the chat room has a complete chat function. More cool features will be developed in the future! Interested friends can fork to develop by themselves, you can change it at will! I have time to upgrade new features! A superset of JavaScript, its biggest advantage is to provide a type system and improve the readability and maintainability of the code. Real-time communication, websocket third-party library. Efficient and scalable Node.js server-side application framework, written based on TypeScript and combined with related concepts of OOP1, FP2, and FRP3.

    Botkit

    Botkit

    Tool for building chat bots, apps and custom integrations

    An open source developer tool for building chat bots, apps and custom integrations for major messaging platforms. Part of the Microsoft Bot Framework. We love bots, and want to make them easy and fun to build! Include Botkit into your Node application and boot up a controller that will define your bot's behaviors. In this case, we're setting up a bot to use with the Bot Framework Emulator. Tell the bot to listen for users saying "hello," and use `bot.reply` to send an immediate response. Start a conversation, then queue up multiple messages to send, including a prompt sent using `convo.ask()` which allows your bot to capture user input and use it. Botkit is just one part of a bigger set of developer tools and SDKs that encompass the Microsoft Bot Framework. The Bot Framework SDK provides the base upon which Botkit is built. It is available in multiple programming languages!
