A robust Discord bot designed to automatically filter and delete inappropriate or disallowed words/phrases from chat. This bot is widely used to maintain safe environments in Discord communities.

Key Features

  • Built a sophisticated filtering mechanism using Regex to detect offensive language and prevent common bypass techniques.
  • The filter handles diacritical marks and Unicode lookalike characters to avoid false positives.
  • Implemented in Node.js with TypeScript, using Express.js for the web interface.
  • Contributed to the development of a tool used by over 100,000 communities.

What I Learned

  • Advanced use of regular expressions for language filtering.
  • Working with Git and Docker in a large-scale development workflow.
  • Real-time data handling and filtering for large user bases.
