thanks

we make use of several amazing services which support us with open-source licenses:

• JetBrains is the company behind IntelliJ, the main IDE we use to develop Aero
• ngrok provides easy tunnels to localhost, we use them to simplify getting slash commands from Discord to Aero
• Cloudflare keeps our services safe from attacks and speeds up our websites

on its own, Aero is pretty cool, but there are some tools we use to extend this even further:

• Perspective - an API using machine learning to reduce toxicity online

Aero isn't built from scratch, here's some of the tech that we used:

• Klasa - an object-oriented framework around discord.js which saves us from writing all the basics
• discord.js - a powerful and easy to use wrapper around the Discord API
• MongoDB - a general purpose, document-based, distributed NoSQL database
