With our Slack and Box applications configured, we’re ready to write the code
for our application which will listen for incoming slash commands and events
from Slack.
This application will be split up into three parts:
- Set up the initial application skeleton and configuration information.
- Set up the handlers for Slack events and slash commands.
- Connect those handlers to the required functions in Box.
Add dependencies and scaffold code
Let’s start by scaffolding the files and minimal code needed to
run the application.
Summary
- You created a minimal application scaffold, and provided the basic configuration details.
- You installed all the project dependencies.
