Active Software Projects

Projects with Websites

• RiveScript.com: the home page for my chatbot scripting language, RiveScript.
• Sketchy Maze: a drawing-based maze game themed around hand-drawn maps on paper.

Open Source

• kirsle/blog: the Go software that currently powers the back-end of kirsle.net.
• rivescript-js: the JavaScript port of RiveScript, see RiveScript below.

Long Term Support

• rophako: the Python blog and content management system that previously powered kirsle.net.
• sonar is an alarm clock program that plays a folder of random music. Mine currently wakes me up to speeches from the philosopher Alan Watts.

RiveScript

RiveScript is a chatbot scripting language I originally programmed in Perl around 2003 during a time when chatbots were popular (i.e. SmarterChild).

A second wave of chatbots has come and gone around 2016 and interest has been dropping off again. Most of the implementations of RiveScript are in "long term support" mode without actively gaining new features.

• rivescript-perl
• rivescript-js
• rivescript-python
• rivescript-go
• rivescript-java: mostly maintained by @marceloverdijk nowadays.
