# Lightcord
|
||||
A simple and customizable Discord client
|
||||
|
||||
## What's This?
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
[Lightcord](https://lightcord.org) is a simple and customizable client for Discord.
|
||||
It includes [BandagedBD](https://github.com/rauenzi/BetterDiscordApp), [Glasstron](https://github.com/AryToNeX/Glasstron) and a [discord.js-like api](https://github.com/Lightcord/Lightcord/tree/master/DiscordJS).

|
||||
* **Free Emotes** - Send any emote to other Lightcord users!
|
||||
* **Token Login** - (user/bot) [Make **server** calls with bots]
|
||||
* **AdBlock** - Automatically block bots and ads in your DMs!
|
||||
* **Always On Top** - Lightcord will always be shown in front of any other windows!
|
||||
* **Experiments** - Access Discord's hidden experiments with a single click!
|
||||
* **Tabs** - Have multiple tabs open to do more!
|
||||
* **HypeSquad Housing** - Easily change your HypeSquad house, no test required!
|
||||
* **Badges** - Important people like the developers have special badges to make sure you know who is who!

||||

## BetterDiscord
|
||||
A modified version of Bandaged Better Discord comes preinstalled, making theming and adding plugins easy.
|
||||
|
||||
## Plugins & Themes
|
||||
Plugins and themes are not in the standard BetterDiscord folder. They have been moved because BetterDiscord only supports the stable, PTB, and canary releases of Discord. Using the same directory could cause problems with settings.
|
||||
|
||||
They are located in `%AppData%/Lightcord_BD`. This is the main folder for BetterDiscord.
