We aren't supposed to mess our hands up with so much of this. We really shouldn't get ourselves dirty with the highly error-prone string manipulation, nor are we supposed to repeat 3 lines of code a thousand times. We also should not be forced to think of all the edge cases and possible output of the user side. Developers should focus on what's important, not what isn't.

Then after all that, we really should make sure our code is clean, maintainable, extendable and flexible.

Building upon this belief, Lamp was born.

Lamp has taken responsibility upon itself to take all the crap of the command creation process: parsing input, validating arguments, auto completions, tokenizing and redirection, and leaves you only to the important part of your job here: the actual command logic.

Through annotations, parameter resolvers, command conditions, permissions, argument validators, cooldowns, dependency injection, auto-completers, Lamp not only makes the command creation process much easier, it also becomes more fun, intuitive and less error prone.
