Dis.ml uses JaneStreet's Async and Core libs and I highly recommend having a solid understanding of both of these before using this library. + +## State of the project +This is being actively developed and is definitely still in the early stages. While you definitely could create a bot with this in its current state, you would be writing a lot of boilerplate still. + +#### What is implemented? +* The full Discord REST API +* Rudimentary gateway support +* Automatic sharding +* Event dispatch to a user-defined consumer + +#### What is not implemented? +* Abstractions for Discord Objects (Message, Guild, Channel, etc) +* Automatic reconnection of dropped gateway connections +* Voice +* Cache + +## Getting started +In order to get started you'll first need to install OCaml (of course). I recommend using OPAM and Dune as a package manage and build tool respectively. + +I currently don't provide an opam build file nor is the project uploaded to opam. This will happen with the first stable release. + +You'll find an example bot in /bin directory.
