hubot is a chat bot built on the Hubot framework. It was initially generated by [generator-hubot][generator-hubot], and configured to be deployed on [Heroku][heroku] to get you up and running as quick as possible.
This README is intended to help get you started. Definitely update and improve to talk about your own instance, how to use and deploy, what functionality he has, etc!
You can test your hubot by running the following.
You can start hubot locally by running:
% ./bin/hubot -n jetbot
You'll see some start up output about where your scripts come from and a prompt:
