A faster client for slow computers. Mainly focuses on reducing the memory footprint. No web-framework is involved.

This client is not a full replacement and never will be! Due to Discord's TOS, automating users beyond the bot API is not allowed. This introduces limitations, like being unable to create groups, join servers and add friends.

This is made to allow you to stay in touch with friends. Servers will only receive basic support.
