The bot was made in the context of creating a Code of Conduct for Varia as an attempt to escape the document-ification of the values Varia wishes to hold close. The bot can be sent a private message by a member which the bot will repeat in the group chat. The intention behind it is to provide a format to express concerns/doubts/conflicts outside of existing group dynamics. + +![](screenshots/whisperbot-screenshot-1.png) + +![](screenshots/whisperbot-screenshot-2.png) + +## How is WhisperBot made? + +WhisperBot is small XMPP bot written in Python that is used in group chats.
