Background
Death Grunty started development in 2020 as a way to self-teach myself JavaScript/NodeJS and to develop a general-purpose bot for my friends and I to use on a private Discord server. Overtime, Death Grunty went through several rewrites and eventually became a general-purpose bot fit for small communities and .hack fans.
As of now, Death Grunty is currently maintained and developed by me (Ethyn Valen); Death Grunty is also hosted on a private dedicated server thanks to a generous friend.
