**Lita** is a chat bot written in [Ruby](https://www.ruby-lang.org/) with persistent storage provided by [Redis](http://redis.io/). It uses a plugin system to connect to different chat services and to provide new behavior. The plugin system uses the familiar tools of the Ruby ecosystem: [RubyGems](https://rubygems.org/) and [Bundler](http://gembundler.com/).

Automate your business and have fun with your very own robot companion.
