Bot Framework Composer2.1.2

Design and manage dialog flows for Microsoft Bot Framework applications through a visual workspace that turns planned conversation behavior into working bot interactions. Microsoft Bot Framework Composer lets developers create conversational experiences and organize how a bot responds to user input. Its authoring canvas also gives multidisciplinary teams a shared place to shape conversations while development is underway.

The tool supports Language Understanding, allowing bots to interpret what users say, and connects with QnA Maker for question-and-answer-based experiences. Language Generation capabilities help authors compose more sophisticated replies instead of limiting responses to fixed text. Developers can bring these language-understanding, question-answering, and response-generation elements together while other team members contribute to the conversation design.

Composer is intended for teams building conversational applications in which dialogue planning and implementation need to happen together, including projects where designers and developers share responsibility for bot behavior. Microsoft publishes it as freeware and open-source software for Windows. The current release is version 2.1.2.
