## What it is
A Node.js bot that bridges Discord and IRC channels by relaying messages between them. It is configured via JSON channel mappings and can be run via npm, as a module, or in Docker.

## Use cases
- bridge an IRC channel to a Discord channel
- relay messages between Discord and IRC
- keep community chats synced across Discord and IRC
- run a Discord-IRC gateway bot
- connect my IRC server to Discord

## When to choose
- you need two-way message syncing between Discord and IRC channels
- you want a simple JSON-configured bridge deployable via Docker
- you prefer a mature, MIT-licensed Node.js solution

## When to avoid
- you need bridging between platforms other than Discord and IRC
- you need rich media or thread-level Discord features relayed to IRC
- you want an actively developed project with frequent releases

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: chatbot, webhook, cli
- domain: messaging-platforms, developer-tools
- platform: cli, cross-platform
- tags: discord, irc, bridge, gateway, bot, message-relay, automation, nodejs, docker
