# Getting Started
If you arrived here, you are probably building an interaction between different users and one or more creatures developed by SPooN.
Our SDK uses:
- SPooN's proprietary code to ensure the natural interaction with the user
- a connection to a chatbot engine to understand the user needs and react accordingly to develop the content
- and optionally some webhooks to add more advanced behaviors to the chatbot: extracting information from a database or website using a REST API for example.
In the following steps, you will learn to :
- configure SPooN: we rely heavily on json (opens new window) for the configuration and for sending commands to SPooN, so you should probably install a json capable editor such as vscode (opens new window) if you don't already have a favorite editor.
- design an interaction with spoon from a chatbot
