This is a concept project. The idea is to build a chat bot that will retrieve nutrition facts of a food when it is asked for using Google DialogFlow (once called API AI). To know more about what DiaglogFlow is about visit DialogFlow

The application uses edamam api to fetch the nutrition facts. Intents and action are built using DialogFlow where as the backend to fetch nutrition facts information is built using Express Js which is a web application framework for Node.js

Code for the server is available at github

Even though the DiaglogFlow application is integrated with ExpressJs server using webhooks, the server is not deployed to cloud due to time and money constraints. The project may be enhanced in future to deploy the server in cloud and integrate the chat bot with any of the platforms such google assistant, slack, facebook messenger, twitter, viber, twilio, skype etc.
