Project Structure

• src/main.rs - Bot entry point, initializes Serenity and LavaLink clients
• src/handler.rs - Serenity event handlers (ready, interaction, voice updates)
• src/lavalink_handler.rs - LavaLink event handlers
• src/state.rs - TypeMap keys for shared state
• src/utils.rs - Utility functions (env management)
• src/commands/ - Modular slash command definitions and handlers

• /join - Bot joins your voice channel
• /play url:<URL> - Plays audio from the given URL

TODO

• Implement actual command logic in src/commands/*.rs
• Add error handling and command concurrency management
