Better Discord Plugin
- JavaScript plugin for open-source Discord client
I set myself a task of making a plugin for BetterDiscord in order to make something practical and useful, while learning some JavaScript and gaining open-source experience. I followed the standards and rules laid out in the documentation to ensure a high quality for my plugin, and reached out to the developer community for the client to obtain assistance from more experienced programmers of the software when needed. The plugin removes bloat from the Discord Client, by hiding the Shop, Nitro, and Friends tabs in settings. It is customizable so the user can decide what to remove. This problem was suited to JavaScript due to the need for settings and logic, as well as needing to access elements on the page with no class or id. However since creating the plugin, it was brought to my attention by another developer that there is a different convention that can be used to access these elements and different ways of setting up settings for these plugins that use CSS. For this reason a CSS plugin may be more lightweight and better suited if possible. The plugin is fully functional and runs on my PC every day, streamlining the application and removing unnecessary bloat. available at: https://github.com/cameronmgj/BD-NoMoreBloat
