Want to share the output of your Dart code, or explain a snippet of code to someone with a realtime execution, or just have fun with print statements? The Dart Runner Bot is here to the rescue.

📖Lessons Learned

Dart Runner Bot has been a really exciting and grasping project for me. This was my first attempt at creating a Discord. And starting out with a programming language (Dart) that has close to no discord bot creation tutorials, was definitely not the best idea.

But I did somehow manage to make this bot amazing (in my opinion at least)

I was driven by a friend's (also member of the concerned Discord server) request to add this bot to the server.

I learnt many things along the way, the most notable ones are mentioned below -

• Nyxx Library
• Dart Processes
• Docker Containers
• Dart Isolates
• Discord API
• and so much more...

🙇 Acknowledgements

I thank @yahu1031 for helping me with the development of this bot, and for making his Flutter Bot source code publicly available.

Some chunks of really useful code have been taken from that repo. The source code of Dart-Runner-Bot will soon be merged to that project.
