What is Grace Framework

Grace Framework is an opinionated, extensible Discord bot framework built on top of discord.py. It comes with a various tools designed to help you rapidly build scalable, feature-rich Discord bots with minimal boilerplate.

Key features

• Modular Architecture: Clean separation of features via extensions
• Database Integration: Easily connect your bot to a persistent backend
• Built-in Generators: Create extensions, models and more with a single command

Inspiration

Grace Framework was inspired by the evolution of our community discord bot, Grace, that evolved, gaining support for modular extensions, database integrations, and rapid feature development — it began to resemble a standalone framework. Recognizing its potential, we decided to extracted its architecture into Grace Framework, making its ease-of-use and flexibility available to developers everywhere.
