Discord Bot on Particle Photon

Hey! I’m looking to develop a Discord app that I would like to run from my Photon.
Essentially I want to import some libraries onto my Photon.
Is this at all possible to do in C++?
Or should I approach the problem in another way, like using the online JavaScript implementation?

Hi @Mollnitz

The Photon is not really meant to host any type of web services or libraries like the one you’re intending. You would be better to have your Photon sent events through Particle’s event system and have a receiving web service to accept the fired events via webhook and fire events accordingly. I personally recommend Discord.js if you have any Node experience.
