+# Pycord rest
+The goal of this repository is to make pycord work with discord's http interactions, as described [here](https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/receiving-and-responding#receiving-an-interaction) and [here](https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/overview#preparing-for-interactions).
+
+To implement this, I will use:
+- fastapi - for the webserver
+- py-cord - for http only methods and reusing the command builders
+
+This would essentially be a wrapper of pycord providing its own classes and methods.
+
+todo:
+- [ ] webserver
+- [ ] Slash commands
+- [ ] Slash options
+- [ ] Slash autocomplete
+- [ ] UI components
