Development Log

The aim of this project was to learn something new so I decided to make an application for a change and use language I am less familiar with which is Java unlike usual c#. The development at first was rather slow as I had to learn everything on how bots work. Prior to this experience I did not know how async functions work or what they are so it took me some research to learn. When development started off I realised that aside from new elements this is very similar style of programming to my previous experiences so making new features proved to be simpler task than originally anticipated.

Permanent/timed bans, mutes and kicks
Log tracker(tracks deleted/modified messages)/li>
