Discord-Lite

A Light-Weight Discord Client written in Python, with love.

❓ Explanation

You may have possibly heard and used Discord once in your life, right?

It can be very resource-intensive, especially with other programs running in the background.

Hence, why Discord-Lite was made.

It uses less memory and loads GIFs faster compared to the Client and Website version of Discord.
It also supports sending & recieving Images, Videos, and other files.

⭐ Clarifications

This isn't any over-the-top "client" of such.
This is simply a Discord Web Instance running in a "Custom Browser" to reduce memory usage and not feast on your RAM.

👀 Inspiration & Sources

This is basically a modified version of the Geeks For Geeks tutorial on "How to Make a Web Browser using PyQt5".
So, I decided to modify it into a web-based Discord Client since it runs Google instances so well.
I then used PyWebview, to improve on some features.
