BallsDex website

Need to design a basic website as a homepage to the bot. This needs the following

• [ ] Terms of Service (required for app discovery)
• [ ] Privacy policy (required for app discovery)
• [ ] Home page with a brief overview of the features
• [ ] Help pages
• [ ] Links for Discord, Github, adding the bot...

I guess this will be done using jekyll.

If I may, I don’t think it’s a very good idea to just use jekyll for a Discord bot of this size. I heard about your bot recently, and I’m willing to contribute to the website if needed.

I advise you to use a JS Framework like React, Angular or Vue.JS, in order to have a minimum of interaction with the user (panel, visibility of statistics etc...), or why not make games directly multiplayer online for example. Everything will be linked to a Python backend.

That’s just an idea, obviously, and I’ll let you comment on that.

*You can do all of that with vanilla HTML with jekyll if you want. A framework will just allow a faster implementation (if you don't have to learn it).

The thing is, there is no current plan for a dashboard that interacts directly with the bot, this issue is about a static website for presenting the bot and including basic informations.

But if there are people motivated for something more than a static website, I'm definitely up for this, and will provide a solid backend (probably shifting to django)

Hello, sorry for the late reply. For the moment, I don't see any problem with a contribution for a dynamic website. I joined your Discord, if you wish, we can talk there to clarify your needs. I just need to find the right channel x)
