## What it is
A small Node.js web application that lets visitors self-register for a Slack team via a public join page. It automates sending Slack invitations, with optional invite tokens and reCAPTCHA for protection.

## Use cases
- let people join my slack community without manual invites
- self-hosted slack signup page
- automatically send slack invitations to new members
- add recaptcha to slack invite form
- deploy slack invite form to heroku
- protect slack invite page with a token

## When to choose
- you run an open Slack community and want a public self-serve join page
- you want a lightweight, self-hosted invite form with optional captcha/token protection
- you want one-click deployment to Heroku, Azure, AWS, or similar platforms

## When to avoid
- you need to manage Slack workspace members beyond sending invitations
- you rely on legacy Slack admin API tokens that may no longer be supported
- you need a full community platform rather than just an invite form
