Kord is a coroutine-based, modular Kotlin library implementing the Discord API for building bots on Kotlin/JVM and Kotlin/JS. It provides modules for the REST API, Gateway, voice, and a high-level core with caching, while exposing lower-level APIs for full control.

Use cases

  • build a discord bot in kotlin
  • handle discord gateway events with coroutines
  • send messages and manage servers via the discord rest api
  • add voice channel audio playback to a discord bot
  • cache discord entities for a bot
  • write a discord bot for jvm and js targets

When to choose

  • you want an idiomatic Kotlin-first Discord library with coroutine concurrency
  • you need access to low-level Discord APIs alongside high-level abstractions
  • you target Kotlin/JVM or Kotlin/JS and want modular REST, gateway, and voice support

When to avoid

  • you need Kotlin/Native support
  • you need multi-process (sharded across processes) bot support
  • you prefer a Java or non-Kotlin JVM library
