Issue Description :-

Ms bot builder bot code is throwing that the "Bot State API is deprecated ,Please refer to https://aka.ms/I6swrh for details on how to replace with your own storage."

I followed the documentation and its states that we can implement a custom state client using data storage platform of your choice instead of using Azure service . Can someone guide or provide some information in that direction how to achieve custom state client using local data storage.

So with this change the Microsoft web based connector use will be just a web based platform for conversion of Platform specific request to bot framework specific format and vice versa and state management will be handled locally .

Environment Details :- SDK Platform: Node.js SDK Version: 3.12.0 Active Channels: Facebook Deployment Environment: ngrok

Reproduction Steps :- update your bot builder SDK to 3.12.0 and observe your logs

By "local data storage" do you mean browser local storage, or node.js hosting site's local storage? – Eric Dahlvang

They use AzureBotStorage class in the sample which accepts IStorageClient interface. You implement this storage client for your favorite database and that's it.
