SHARDWIRE

Why Shardwire?

Keep Discord online while you change your code. Hot-reload app logic without dropping the gateway connection.

Shardwire is the Heart that keeps beating: your bot stays connected to Discord. Your App is the Brain you can swap, restart, and edit on the fly—without the usual “bot is offline…” gap.

The magic

  • No more full downtime when you tweak features: restart your app, not the whole bot process.
  • The Connection between your code and Discord stays warm while you iterate.

Try it

Jump to Getting started for a copy-paste Hello World, then First slash command for the “edit → save → instant reply” moment.

Code → Bridge → Discord

In one glance: you write code, it talks to the Shardwire bridge (The Connection), and the bridge keeps Discord in sync.

Your code talks to the Shardwire bridge (The Connection); the bridge stays wired to your Discord bot so you can restart the app side any time.
