Spacebar Server is a Discord-compatible backend reimplementation written mainly in TypeScript. It aims to let users run a self-hosted communication server that can work with existing Discord-style bots, applications, and clients where compatibility allows. The repository includes the HTTP API server, WebSocket gateway, CDN server, WebRTC server, request and response schemas, database models, and administrative utilities. It is part of the broader Spacebar ecosystem for decentralized, self-hostable chat infrastructure. The project is useful for developers interested in Discord-like systems, real-time communication protocols, and independently operated chat services. Some compatibility gaps still exist, so not every Discord client can connect perfectly to a Spacebar instance.
