## ✨ Features

- Leighweight and extendable using the [Nest](https://github.com/nestjs/nest) framework

- Fast and validated configuration using environment variables
- Typesafe code for quicker development and less bugs
- Supports ``Music``, ``Playlists`` and ``Albums`` from your Jellyfin instance

## 📌 About this project
This project was originally started by [KGT1 on Github](https://github.com/KGT1/jellyfin-discord-music-bot/) in 2020. I came accross this project in late 2021, when wanted to enjoy my music on Discord. I never got it to run as I wanted it to. Since the original project was created under the MIT license, I decided to make a fork in 2022 with my own version. Although this project re-uses some code of the original project, it has been completly rewritten in other parts using NestJs and features now a module-based approach.

## ⛔ Limitations

- Bot does not support shards. This means, you cannot use it in multiple servers concurrently.
- Album covers are not visible, unless they are remote (eg. provided by external metadata provider)
- Streaming any video content in voice channels (See [this issue](https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js/issues/4116))
