DiscordBot

My Discord bot that runs on the server my friends and I run.

The bot is written in NodeJS and runs on a Raspberry Pi on my home network (it's sick set up, I know).

This is a pet project. I don't get paid to maintain this.

• nodemon: soley to restart the bot
• discord-paginationembed: for the help menus
