Develop features over Aura Platform

Introduction

Aura is designed as a configurable Platform in which developers can build specific features both for customizing their Aura system or in order to contribute to Aura global code.

For this purpose, Aura Platform put at the OBs’ disposal tools, guidelines and rules that should be followed by the developers:

• Use Aura utilities: specific procedures based on Microsoft Bot Framework 4 functionalities that ease the execution of different tasks in Aura.

• Develop an Aura bridge plugin: guidelines for the generation of a new plugin and its activation/deactivation in aura-bridge

• Follow common rules in order to contribute to Aura Platform global repositories

• Know how Aura Platform releases are deployed, following the “release train” software development methodology, through the Aura Release Train Manager
