Development of the CiviCRM Chatbot extension has been generously funded by the National Democratic Institute.

It is maintained by Michael McAndrew from Third Sector Design who you can contact for help, support and further development.

It builds on Botman.io, the excellent PHP chatbot framework by Marcel Pociot.

Contributions large and small are very welcome to this repository. For small changes, feel free to submit a pull request. For larger changes, its better to create an issue first so we can talk things through before you start.
