This is a supplementary course for my Learn Dialogflow ES course students.

This is just a list of all courses on this website, plus some tips on the login and registration process. Please note: I plan to make some of my free courses part of the Dialogflow Course Bundle at some point in the future (which means that they will become paid courses). If you are interested…

I have a chatbot on my website which asks people which tool they use to design their Dialogflow flowcharts. Most people reply “I don’t” 🙂 My view is that you will be able to build your ES bot a lot more quickly if you use a flowcharting tool like Mindomo. Here is what a client…

This is a supplementary course for students of the Learn Dialogflow CX course. The course has answers to questions from students as well as some tutorials which supplement the course material.

This course explains a systematic process for improving the accuracy of Dialogflow chatbots.

This course explains how to build large Dialogflow ES bots. If you have more than 500 training phrases in your bot (excluding the ones which already come with the Default Welcome Intent), I would say your bot is a large one. In this course I will provide some tips on building and maintaining such bots.

This course explains the basics of building Dialogflow Messenger bots.

This course is based on the ES quickstart templates course. I explain how to build the same bots in CX. You will find that in most cases, building the bot in CX is not just easier, but the chatbot is also more resilient to user errors. The course also includes zipped versions of the .blob…

The first part of this course provides an overview of ES vs CX. A simple way to compare the features of Dialogflow ES and Dialogflow CX is to build the same chatbot using both. In the second part of this course, I build a very simple decision tree chatbot in ES first, and then explain…

This course provides you a list of quickstart templates for Dialogflow ES. These are small, self contained Dialogflow ES agents which are intended for a very specific task. My recommendation is to a) read the tutorial for each template b) try to implement it yourself inside your Dialogflow console c) if you get stuck, download…

In this mini-course, I will explain how to get started with Dialogflow ES. This guide will be especially useful for non-programmers since it does not require you to write any code. Also, this is a tutorial-by-example. You will download some example Dialogflow agents, and interact with them inside your Dialogflow account. This helps in two…

This course explains how to use spaCy and pandas for text analytics

Unlike most of the other learning material you find online, this course will take a single dataset and use it to explain the basic concepts of Pandas. Unlike many of the clean, small and somewhat contrived datasets you see in regular tutorials, the VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System) dataset is very unique. It is…

This is a quick introduction to spaCy which explains the basic steps to get started

Since Dialogflow CX uses a state machine based approach to building your chatbot, it actually helps to build an actual state machine – the vending machine – using CX as you get started learning the topic. Once you learn what a state machine is and how to build a simple one using CX, you will…
