A bot to do dumb things in the slack(s) I idle in.

Local dev env is built on docker compose. To get hacking clone the repo and run docker-compose up, you can then exec into the running container to run the bot python3 /slackbot/run_will.py and iterate on code in the /slackbot directory using your favourite editor outside the container.

See this blog post⁠ for a walkthrough of this pattern.
