Description: # Flask-Discord-Interactions
        
        This is a Flask extension that lets you write Discord Slash Commands using a decorator syntax similarly to Flask's `@app.route()` or Discord.py's `@bot.command()`.
        
        ## Usage
        
        Look in the examples directory for more detailed examples.
        
        ```
        import os
        
        from flask import Flask
        from flask_discord_interactions import DiscordInteractions
        
        
        app = Flask(__name__)
        discord = DiscordInteractions(app)
        
        
        app.config["DISCORD_CLIENT_ID"] = os.environ["DISCORD_CLIENT_ID"]
        app.config["DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY"] = os.environ["DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY"]
        app.config["DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET"] = os.environ["DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET"]
        
        
        @discord.command()
        def ping(ctx):
            "Respond with a friendly 'pong'!"
            return "Pong!"
        
        
        discord.set_route("/interactions")
        
        
        discord.clear_slash_commands(guild_id=os.environ["TESTING_GUILD"])
        discord.register_slash_commands(guild_id=os.environ["TESTING_GUILD"])
        
        
        if __name__ == '__main__':
            app.run()
        ```
        
        ## How is this different from `discord-py-slash-command`?
        
        `Discord.py` and `discord-py-slash-command` use a bot user and a websocket to connect to Discord, just like a regular Discord bot. It's a nice way to add support for slash commands to an existing Discord bot, or if you need to use a bot user to manage channels, reactions, etc.
        
        However, for simple bots, using webhooks instead of websockets can let your bot scale better and use less resources. You can deploy a webhook-based bot behind a load balancer and scale it up or down as needed without needing to worry about sharding or dividing up guilds between the app processes.
