Introduces Discord and the Python library discord.py (which exposes an async API) and shows how to use it to automate conference tasks. Demonstrates a bot built to register/check in hundreds of attendees for EuroPython, with a demo and walkthrough of discord.py async coroutines (event listeners like on_ready and commands), contrasts async vs synchronous code, and warns about mixing them.
