An unofficial .NET wrapper for the Discord API, enabling developers to build Discord bots and integrations.
Discord.Net is an unofficial .NET wrapper for the Discord API that enables developers to build Discord bots, integrations, and applications using C# and the .NET ecosystem. It provides a high-level abstraction over Discord's REST and WebSocket APIs, handling authentication, rate limiting, and real-time events so developers can focus on bot logic.
.NET developers looking to create Discord bots, automate server management, or integrate Discord features into their applications. It's suitable for both hobbyists and professionals building scalable bot solutions.
Developers choose Discord.Net for its comprehensive API coverage, modular design, and strong adherence to .NET conventions. It offers stability through semantic versioning, active maintenance, and a modular package system that allows picking only the needed components.

Supports all Discord REST and WebSocket APIs, including entities, events, and interactions, ensuring no feature gaps for bot development.
Split into core, webhook, command, interaction, and WebSocket/Rest packages, allowing developers to include only necessary components and reduce bloat.
Provides text-command and interaction services for creating slash commands and context menus, simplifying command creation without external libraries.
Offers both stable NuGet releases and experimental nightly builds via BaGet or GitHub Packages, balancing reliability with early feature access.
Has known issues with WebSockets on Windows 7 and earlier, and TLS on .NET Framework, requiring upgrades or workarounds like the WS4Net package.
Minor version bumps can introduce breaking changes to interfaces and require recompilation, deviating from strict semantic versioning guarantees.
The modular architecture necessitates understanding and installing multiple packages, which can be overwhelming for newcomers compared to all-in-one solutions.
