Does mycroft support text commands?

All,
I’m downloading mycroft right now after I saw it at the maker fair in Kansas City. I was wondering if mycroft supports text? I wanted to see if it does or if anyone else is working on it before I start coding.

I was thinking about making some sort of platform independent way for you to interact with mycroft via keyboard. Maybe using an MQTT Broker that supports websockets so applications can be developed in many languages enabling keyboard input.

There are ways to make it work through text based interactions. Here is a bot created by the community https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-slackbot

Mycroft architecture is set up to run 4 different python process (enclosure, voice, skills, service). They communicate via websockets. You can bypass the voice service by directly interacting with the mycroft websockets.
