MtheBot_ is an open-source project by Mitchell Adair, aiming to build an easy-to-use chat bot for Twitch. Chat bots on Twitch help to provide a rewarding and engaging experience for a broadcaster's viewers. In order to provide such an experience, often times a broadcaster must do a lot of additional work and research to allow for complicated commands to work in their chat. The goal of MtheBot_ is to minimize the amount of extra work a broadcaster must to in order to provide their chat with an enjoyable experience. The project started as a way to make a uniquely customizable bot for my own Twitch channel. I quickly realized that I could generalize the bot and make it available for other people to use as well.
MtheBot_ is currently a one-man operation. Because of this, I incur numerous monthly costs associated with keeping the bot running, which I currently pay out of pocket. These costs include domain registration and maintenance, server architechture, and more. If you would like to help keep MtheBot_ running, you could consider supporting the project on GitHub Sponsors or giving a one-time donation through PayPal. Anything is appreciated and will directly help the efforts being made not only to maintain MtheBot_, but also to allow me to dedicate more time to improving the bot and it's features.
MtheBot_ is built using tmi.js and TESjs. The back-end is built using a MySQL database and Express to host an API which serves the MtheBot_ user portal.
MtheBot_ is an open-source project and I welcome contributions to it! I will do my best to review pull requests in a timely manner. Documentation on getting started with developing for MtheBot_ as well as API reference can be found in the doc section of this repository.
