Project overview

We are going to build a serverless Slack application to simulate daily standup meeting.

How is it going to work?

  1. Application will be installed to our team’s SLACK_CHANNEL
  2. At time event (eg 8:30) (Time to ask questions) - application will send Direct Messages to the users and collect the responses.
  3. At time event (eg. 10:00) (Time to send report) - application collects data from the database and send it back to the SLACK_CHANNEL
