Launch of New Book for building Serverless Community Apps with Discord and Stripe APIs
Launch of New Book for building Serverless Community Apps with Discord and Stripe APIs
ELSOUL LABO B.V. (based in Amsterdam, Netherlands, CEO: Fumitake Kawasaki) has
showcased new possibilities in community app development integrating Discord and
Stripe's APIs using its open-source TypeScript-based serverless framework,
"Skeet".
This integration enables developers to seamlessly build chatbots in a serverless
environment and integrate payment processing systems. Notably, this approach
leverages the core strengths of the Skeet framework, enhancing development
efficiency while reducing costs.
This new development model, combining the flexibility of open-source software
with the efficiency of cloud-based services, is expected to bring new
possibilities to the developer community.
Overview of the book
In this book, we explore the sophisticated use of serverless technology in
conjunction with the Skeet framework. It covers a wide range of topics,
including integrating Discord bots with Stripe payment systems, setting up bots
in serverless environments, implementing payment processing, webhooks, and
managing role collaboration.
The book provides a practical and comprehensive hands-on guide, accessible to
beginners and advanced users alike, to experience the benefits of efficiency and
cost reduction in serverless development. Notably, the applications built in
this book operate with just two functions (Firebase Functions - 1GB), showcasing
Skeet's strength in realizing eco-friendly development environments. Dive into
the world of serverless with this book and gain practical knowledge for
environmentally friendly application development.
The book is currently available for free on Zenn. Experience the possibilities
of serverless app development through its content.

Skeet - TypeScript Serverless Framework
Skeet is an open-source serverless framework in TypeScript. This framework
allows rapid development of everything from API servers to web, iOS, and Android
apps.
Skeet Documentation: https://skeet.dev/en/
TypeScript enhances code quality and maintainability through static typing,
detecting errors early. Skeet further adopts cutting-edge technologies like
GraphQL and Firestore, offering developers the best development experience. It
also facilitates easy development of AI applications utilizing ChatGPT and
Vertex AI, and Web3 dApps using blockchain technologies like Solana, being a
modular and expandable contemporary application framework.
You can experience a demo of an AI chat app built with Skeet using the following
link. It supports PaLM2, Vertex AI, and OpenAI's ChatGPT (GPT-4 Turbo, GPT-4,
GPT-3.5 Turbo), allowing you to compare and examine the features of these
technologies.

The Skeet development team is currently working on writing a paper to be
presented at ENASE 2024 in Paris next year. Please contribute to the required
evaluation survey for the paper.
