Bot Rewrite

[Sniped]

In the future I’m most likely going to be rewriting my code to better support the needs of full customization. Some of the things I will be including in the rewrite are:

• A full web panel dedicated to command handling.
• Categorize commands into folders, this will help with web panel stuff.
• Attempt to make music stable enough to go to prod.
• Fun commands (this is very general, pls reply with some fun commands we can do)
• Moderation for #servers and #marketplace as suggested on Minehut Suggestions.

Nice summary of everything that should be done.

Fun commands ~ If you check #2 you can see a list of possible commands to include

Music Bot ~ For the first launch of this, we should focus on just having the music bot play music from Youtube. In the future, we could take advantage of the Spotify API to get a list of songs from a playlist and then look up those songs on Youtube so people can queue and play Spotify playlists without having ads if they don't have premium.

For the Spotify API, how are we going to maintain the premium status of the account we use?

(include this as well)

If I'm correct, I know the current Minehut music bot (Red Discord Bot) does it by using the API to look up all the names of the songs in the playlist, then it searches those song names on Youtube and queues it from Youtube onto the playlist. It doesn't require premium status at all since anyone can create an API key, that's how I set it up for the current MH bot and it seems to work fine. See below

Status update on the panel, got down a bit of the design.

I like it! Some feedback on that so far:

• Maybe make the Minehut logo a bit darker (not as transparent)
• What about adding a smaller Minehut logo in the top left next to the "Control Panel" wording similar to the one on the main Minehut panel?

Also kinda curious, what are you going to be using for the site? Nextjs?

[Sniped]

The site’s using Express for backend and EJS for frontend. I’ll make the logo a little less transparent and add it onto the navbar as well. Also, what should the dashboard include on the front? Gotta give it some content otherwise it looks dull.

I guess what we can include is some basic stats about the Discord server such as:

• People in the Discord server
• People online in the Discord server
• Number of people in voice channels
• Anything similar to that I guess

What I got done today, I quite like it so far.

The reason the last three are N/A because no data has been collected yet and I don't need to start collecting data until we're ready for release on prod.

[BennyDoesStuff]

I like it, we could probably update the look a bit but otherwise, I think it's a nice start.

finished documentation, this also finishes command storing in a database for full customization client-side (website)

I've decided to scrap my current progress and go for a better design, this time it will be material bootstrap. I will also be writing the new website in React rather than using express EJS. I will include multi guild support as suggested in #16. The main intention I'm going for is customization, we could also include live statistics that will update when they change.
