Hannah was built to assist with hackathons! She has 3 main capabilities:
- Handing out Azure Passes to students
- Introducing students to the hack team members onsite
- Answering questions about specific MS Technologies
You can customize the technologies and team members for each hackathon so Hannah can be more reusable.
Hannah's hackathon specific settings are in the data/hackSpecificData.js
file. You can customize the data for each hackathon by modifying the data in the following format. Please make sure you keep the appropriate article preceding the hack prize for the bot's grammar to make sense. Each team member will be picked up by the app/dialogs/teamInfo
dialog and added to the card of team members automatically.
