The Self scripting language is Bot Libre's language for scripting bot responses. Self is based on the syntax of JavaScript with several extensions for language processing. Self is an integrated environment that merges JavaScript, state machines, patterns, and an object database.
If you already know JavaScript, you should find the Self syntax quite familiar. Self supports most JavaScript concepts and syntax, (if you notice something missing you would like, please let us know). If you are new to programming, the JavaScript syntax is quite simple, and there are lots of resources available on the Internet (such as w3schools).
