I’ve recently spent some time writing a simple discord bot, which I call “Lata Velha”.

The bot was inspired by a discord server where, in the “random” channel, a bot would serve drinks to users (usually tea) and respond to “good day/good night”. I wanted to reproduce that in my own personal server. I know that there are several very powerful “general-purpose” discord bots, but it makes me happy to try to code these things myself from scratch, so here we are.

You can check the code for the bot in its Github repository. Fair warning: I’m not very good with Javascript, so the code can be janky in places.
