better copywriting for start message

[sayanee]

Hello! Thanks for connecting with us via Messenger. Ask us about "upcoming events"

Edit to include:

• what are upcoming events?
• what is We Build SG?

[kahwee]

Most apps start with a tutorial of sorts. I think we can start with a better marketing blurb. Is there a one-sentence introduction to We Build SG?

Is there a one-sentence introduction to We Build SG

exactly that I'm thinking! 👏

How about...

Hello! We Build SG curates the grassroots engineering, design and maker community in Singapore. Ask us about "upcoming events" or "updated repos".

[kahwee]

I would lose the "the" and make "community" plural.

What do you think?

🚢 🌟

Where can we change these copywriting? Doesn't seem to be in the code. Can't find in the chat bot config / setting either 😰

[kahwee]

I'll change this. It's not exposed in Facebook's Settings yet, it's a POST request for their API server.

[sayanee]

Uh is the code at https://kw.sg/webuild/bot doing the POST request? You can open source the code as well, then anyone can help to change it - will be faster for you 😄 👌

[kahwee]

The code is actually in this repository. There's no additional code hosted by the server.

There's a bit of problem with Facebook's API at the moment. It's updated but not reflected in new threads.
