Project 1: Echo Bot – Hands‑On

▶

Video by manfra․io on YouTube · 45 min. We did not make this video and we do not host it — watching it here still counts as a view for the creator.

Build a minimal bot that repeats whatever the user sends. The video demonstrates reading req.body.Body and sending it back. New developers often forget to trim whitespace, leading to empty replies.

This hands‑on reinforces the request‑response cycle and gives you a live demo to show peers. You’ll later replace the echo logic with real menu handling.
