Jovo is the open-source web framework that lets you build scalable conversational apps for Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Messenger, and the Web from a single codebase. Jovo is a Document-Object Mapper for voice platforms (think of Express.js , but for conversational interfaces). It uses a declarative, component-based API similar to React: you define handlers, compose components, and let the framework handle platform-specific translation.
