MtheBot_ is an open-source project by [Mitchell Adair](https://github.com/mitchwadair), 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](https://www.twitch.tv/mtheb). I quickly realized that I could generalize the bot and make it available for other people to use as well.

# How can I support MtheBot_?
26-
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 [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/mitchdev). 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](https://github.com/tmijs/tmi.js). The back-end is built using a custom API server which hosts both a private API used by the front-end as well as a public API for general data (used in the "users" tag on this repo for example). The bot's back end is run through [AWS Elastic Beanstalk](https://aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/) and uses a [MySQL](https://www.mysql.com/) database attached to the EB environment.

MtheBot_ was a learning opportunity for me. At work, I use React so I took this opportunity to learn a new front-end framework. So, as a result, I went with [Vue](https://vuejs.org/). In addition to Vue, I utilized the [Vuetify](https://vuetifyjs.com/) design library to make the application pretty.
