Zeno-Bot

I built a Slack bot - Zeno. The bot can fetch real-time data from APIs like jokes, facts, dictionary definitions, and images, all directly inside Slack.

The hardest part was deployment and debugging.

Getting the bot to run continuously on a server using systemd
Handling API failures (like broken or missing responses)
Making sure Slack slash commands respond correctly using ack()

To test the bot, users can use these Slack slash commands:

/zeno-bot-help → shows all available commands
/zeno-bot-fact → returns a random fact
/zeno-bot-joke → returns a joke
/zeno-bot-define → gives definition of a word
/zeno-bot-image → shows a random image
/zeno-bot-ping → checks bot latency

Im actually pretty much proud of making one slack-bot that i was glazing quite a lot since it was my first time every trying out such a project!
