Which framework should we use?

[meatball133]

Alright time to choose which framework to work in, here is the list: https://www.pythondiscord.com/events/code-jams/11/frameworks/

If you have experience with any of these frameworks, please go into detail and also what you like or dislike about the framework(s). Otherwise so please let us know why the framework you have chosen is the best, is it safer? is it faster? is it easier to use?

If we all can't agree we will vote on the matter.

My vote goes to discord.py, mainly because that's what I have experience with and can go full speed with it.

As for other frameworks, I simply haven't tried them to know their pros/cons.

I have done some research and discord.py seems like a solid option. And it was updated pretty recently to 2.4 which added some features such as poll support. Do you know if it is discord api v10 compatiable, since I couldnt fine any mentions of that? Api reference link: https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference

I'd also suggest discord.py as it's the de-facto standard of Python-Discord communication. There's tons of help for it available online and I also have hands-on experience with it.

I found this buried in the repo which suggests dpy does support v10.

I'd be fine with any framework, but since discord.py seems to be the most popular option (both in this team and in general) it might be best to go with that, especially since some already have hands-on experience with it.

I don’t really have much to say, since I don’t have too much experience making discord bots, so I guess I’ll look into discord.py then.
