Show HN: ManyBot – Framework to build WhatsApp bots, without the boring part
4 hours ago
- ManyBot is a modular framework for building WhatsApp bots, focusing on simplicity and extensibility.
- It operates on a plugin-based architecture where business logic resides in independent plugins, allowing easy addition, removal, or updates without restarting the entire system.
- Unlike using raw Baileys, ManyBot abstracts connection management and message routing, letting developers focus on command logic.
- Benefits include isolated failures (if a plugin errors, the core keeps running), the ManyPlug CLI for plugin lifecycle automation, native ESM support, and strict typing.
- The framework is community-driven and open for contributions.
