/**
 * Facebook Platform
 *
 * You need to setup an app/page on Facebook for the facebook platform. Visit
 * https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/guides/quick-start
 * for more info.
 *
 * Facebook requires that the server hosting a bot be exposed to the internet.
 * If you are running this example locally, you will want to expose your local
 * server to the internet via tunneling. An easy way to do this is with 
 * ngrok. (https://ngrok.com/)
