Novus VS interactions.py

Novus repo

Components via list.

Adding Novus https://github.com/Voxel-Fox-Ltd/Novus, since the dev is active in this sub

Sure! Here's the GitHub Repo and a changelog (summarized, full) since Discord.py announced the shut-down. It's very close to Discord.py since it's a direct extension, has support for components and interactions (buttons, context commands, dropdowns, slash commands), thread support. The development server is discord.gg/vfl and the maintainer of this fork is Kae#0004 (the creator of MarriageBot, Flower, and more).

Novus is a D.py fork that I'm maintaining myself, adding slash and context command support and more as an extension beyond Danny's fork. I have changed the entire UI system from Danny's, but all is documented properly. In addition I also maintain VoxelBotUtils which is meant to streamline bot development.

Stay tuned with upcoming post about interactions.py and how you can take advantage of the library. If you like this post, be sure to give a heart. If you have any question, let me know in the comment section. Alternatively, you can join the official interactions.py Discord server for further help.

In this post, I will guide you how to make a simple Discord Bot in Python, using a library called interactions.py. Requirements: You need to have a good view with Python first as making a Discord Bot isn't exactly considered as beginner-friendly.

They announced the partnership on the 9th, IIRC, so they might still be in the planning stages. I’ve got no idea what will come of it, nor (to be honest) why it’s happening in the first place. It doesn’t sound like a merger, just an assurance of interoperability.

The other lib I might try also in the future is interactions.py due to its benchmarks and its purity for only being able to support the interactions api. The lib is also rather unstable for now so I'll wait for its full-blown stable release.
