Multipurpose open source Discord bot which handles all sort of things - from basic moderation, playing music on channel to automatic handling events.
Pandus is a Discord bot written in Java using JDA. It supports multi-source music playback (YouTube, Spotify via LavaSrc), a SQLite-backed persistence layer with HikariCP connection pooling, and a command framework built on JDA-Chewtils. The source code is published here for transparency and open contribution — the bot itself runs as a hosted instance but feel free to private host and use.
You can test and use bot by adding to your Discord server via invite link.

If the bot fails to connect, double-check that your .env file exists and contains a valid TOKEN value.
If you encounter audio issues on Windows, ensure the JDAVE native library (jdave-native-win-x86-64) is on the classpath — it is bundled automatically via the shadow JAR.
