Example of end-to-end application without docker

[Gandhi-Sagar]

I have installed everything that is listed in the install file.
Though, I have few questions:

1. In my understanding, alex needs many other installations, but alex itself is not installed and has to be used on a script basis. At least, in the INSTALL file, there is no instruction to install alex. But when I navigate to alex files, there is setup.py. So does alex needs further installation? If not, how does one know when to run which scripts? Say - I am interested in only SLU. What scripts should be used? What is the data format of output of VAD?

2. Is there a way to have a small end-to-end application running? It is okay if this is for very small/synthesized data. I am asking for an example without using docker.

I also get some trouble when I try to run an example. Is there any example for a rookie

@nicexyf , I was able to run few examples (specifically, NLU, DM and NLG). If you are stuck at anything specific, I would be happy to help.

@Gandhi-Sagar Thank you first! When I run applications/thub.py, it will try to connect to https://vystadial.ms.mff.cuni.cz/download/alex/ which cannot be accessed. When I comment out related code. I find that some resource files, CamInfoRest/nlgtemplates.cfg for example, are mising. What can i do?
