Lightcord
A simple and customizable Discord client
What's This?
Lightcord is a simple and customizable client for Discord. It includes BandagedBD, Glasstron and a discord.js-like api.
Information
Lightcord doesn't just patch Discord with it's content. If it did, discord updates could easily break it. That's why Lightcord is a standalone Discord client. Just grab the latest release and launch!
Installing
You can download a release from the releases tab.
Running From Source
Prequeresites: Node.js and NPM To run from source, follow these instructions:
git clone https://github.com/Lightcord/Lightcord
cd Lightcord
npm run devInstall
npm test
You will have to do that everytime you pull/clone
Lightcord will then launch. If you see the Lightcord icon, you're good to go!
Anytime you want to launch, just run:
npm run run
You can install on GNU/Linux with our install script or the AUR

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.
