 This library is alpha software and the API design could change to improve composability, ergonomicity and ease of use. We recommend using `stack` for dealing with this library (you will need to add it to the `extra-deps` in `stack.yaml`).

+NOTE (1.6.2016): the WelcomeMessageSendAPI recently changed. The Platform no-longer accepts any welcome message api-wise (only a custom payload is now allowed). The library will be updated to reflect this change as soon as I can (otherwise you are welcome to submit a PR). To setup/modify the Welcome Message you have to use the online interface.
 
 # Usage

+Before being able to test and use the bot, you will need to verify your key.
 The example app in `example-app/example.hs` contains a servant server that implements the verification and a trivial echo-server.
 You can run it with
 
 ```{.bash}
-VERIFY_TOKEN="your_token_goes_here" stack exec example  
+VERIFY_TOKEN="your_token_goes_here" stack exec example
 ```
 
 and pass it some data (here assuming you have `httpie` installed)
