TODO, also add available configurations
Just create a new project, create a new npm module and install this library as npm dependency:
npm install virtual-assistant
Create your own class extending the abstract AssistantFeature and export it from your module.
You can take this "hello world" plugin as example: https://github.com/denouche/virtual-assistant-plugin-hello-world
For persistent interactions, running through multiple dialogs you can use a final state machine to handle the dialog sequence: https://github.com/jakesgordon/javascript-state-machine
