## Features
- **Secure & stable**: Discordeno is secure and stable. One of the greatest
issues with almost every library is stability; types are outdated, less (or
minimal) parity with the API, core maintainers have quit or no longer actively
maintain the library, and whatnot. Discordeno, on the other hand, is actively
maintained to ensure great performance and convenience. Moreover, it
internally checks all missing permissions before forwarding a request to the
Discord API so that the client does not get globally-banned by Discord.
- **Simple, Efficient, & Lightweight**: Discordeno is simplistic, easy-to-use,
versatile while being efficient and lightweight. Follows
[Convention Over Configuration](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convention_over_configuration)
design paradigm ― prefers defaults options or values that are recommended by
Discord or the best configuration for the majority of the users.
- [**Functional API**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming):
Functional API ensures an overall concise yet performant code while removing
the difficulties of extending built-in classes and inheritance.
## Getting Started
### Minimal Example
Here is a minimal example to get started with:
```typescript
import { startBot } from "https://deno.land/x/discordeno/mod.ts";
startBot({
token: "BOT TOKEN",
intents: ["GUILDS", "GUILD_MESSAGES"],
eventHandlers: {
ready() {
console.log("Successfully connected to gateway");
},
messageCreate(message) {
if (message.content === "!ping") {
message.reply("Pong using Discordeno!");
}
},
},
});
```
### Boilerplates
Note to developers: don't worry a lot of developers start out programming a
Discord bot as their first project (I did 😉) and it is not so easy to do so.
Discordeno is designed and built considering all the issues that I and a lot of
developers had when I first started out coding Discord bots with existing
libraries. If you are a beginner, you can check out these awesome official and
unofficial boilerplates:
- [Discordeno Bot Template (official)](https://github.com/discordeno/discordeno-bot-template)
- [Serverless Slash Commands Template
(official)](https://github.com/discordeno/slash-commands-bot)
