chooksie

Fast Discord.JS Framework

Features

• 🚀 Simple, Declarative Interface
• 💪 Powerful Application Command Integration
• 🔨 First Class TypeScript Support
• 🔥 Hot Command Reloading

Why is it fast?

Writing Code

Chooksie achieves a minimal interface by bringing commands down to their most basic form: Objects.

This not only gives us the advantage of being able to write commands declaratively, but also provide amazing intellisense without making users write TypeScript code.

import { defineSlashCommand } from 'chooksie'

export default defineSlashCommand({
  name: 'ping',
  description: 'Pong!',
  async execute(ctx) {
    await ctx.interaction.reply('Pong!')
  },
})

Development

Chooksie comes with a powerful development server that provides lots of quality of life features, including:

• Instant code compilation with SWC,
• Real-time command syncing with Discord,
• First class scripting support, and
• Hot code reloading

All these features combined leads to a development experience that allows you to continuously write code without having to restart, reload, or update your application.

Production

Chooksie is written from scratch with support for Discord Application Commands in mind, this means we only have to optimize for a small set of features, leaving us with a tiny core library whose only job is to load your code and let Discord.JS handle the rest.
