Inspiration

Knowing that many classrooms have class discords, we wanted to increase some sort of interactivity which teachers could use or anyone in general use to get an idea of what the class may feel about something or etc. Which led to the idea of making a discord poll bot.

What it does

This bot's purpose is to be able to create a poll by the user in the message channel, open with a multiple choice poll, which a user can react to as their vote in the poll.

How we built it

Using the discord python library, and discord developer portal to create the bot with its specific token to code with.

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges we faced were getting familiar with the discord database as it was a lot of information to take in as we have not used these tools before. It was also challenging trying to implement the poll features we had wanted it to have.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were able to develop a bot that can be called in a server, although not all of the things we wanted to get done in this hackathon was done, it laid out the work that we know we can get done for the future.

What we learned

How to use discord's library and create a discord bot with specific features.

What's next for Discord Bought

Finish implementing the poll bot we made to make it fully functional. As we need to fix the duplicate vote, adding reactions not listed in options, and the countdown of the poll.
