PESU Academy Bot

PESU Academy Discord Bot built for PESsants and PESts of PES University

You can add the bot to your Discord Server using this link. Once the bot has joined your server, please carry out the setup instructions posted by the bot.

What can PESU Academy Bot do?

1. It periodically fetches PESU announcements and notifies you immediately (thus eliminating any reason to open PESU Academy)
2. It is connected to a student database, and allows you to perform a query based lookup to search
3. It updates you about Instagram posts made by clubs
4. It also follows PES social media handles - Instagram and Reddit
5. It contains two URL shortners - long.rip by Adarsh Shetty and redirector by me
6. You can also execute Python code!
7. It features a meme-generator - SaaS and an English Dictionary

...and more.

Execute pes.help after adding the bot to your server to check out all the features.
