What does "light weight" really mean?

Light weight, developers use a lot of tools, Git, Visual Studio, and we all know what using Visual Studio is like, and plus StackOverflow for all those queries you gotta ask, you probably also use Discord, it's quite popular for developer communities and gaming too! So to toggle between co-operative workspaces and your IDE, here's Discord Lite, it uses less memory when compared to Discord Client or Google Chrome version of Discord. It also loads GIFs faster, supports Images and Videos, PDF and other documents.

Drawbacks

There are a few drawbacks to the light weighted version ofcourse, and they are:

  1. It can't be used for live streaming.
  2. It can't be used for VC's
  3. It can't be used for screen sharing or video calls

and that's about it.

Inspiration and sources

This is basically a modified version of the Geeks For Geeks tutorial on how to Make a Web Browser using PyQt5, so I to decided let's modify it and make it a Discord Client since it runs Google so well.

Link: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/creating-a-simple-browser-using-pyqt5/

Known issues

None

Roadmap

On the roadmap we've got:

  1. Downloading Images using links in the Client
  2. Screenshot Button to quickly screenshot chats
  3. VC and Streaming support
  4. Video call support
  5. Switching between alts

Contributions

Any useful contribution is welcome, but preference will be given to those who can solve the drawback issues or implement the roadmap features in their PR, happy coding!

Compatibility

Currently tested for Windows 10 with Python 3.9.9 issues related to reports on other systems can be opened.

Clarifications

This isn't any serious "client" of such, it's simply Discord Web running in a custom browser to reduce strain on Chrome or the Discord Client which infact is quite heavy and can feast off your RAM, feel free to star the repo if you liked it.

    I install the installer file. But after I install the discord lite, my laptop kinda feels heavy and laggy. My CPU usage is up to 100%. I had to uninstall and my laptop back to normal.

    Add more options to the context menu

    Would it be possible to have more options in the context menu such as:

    • Copy Image
    • Copy Image URL

    These are present in the official Discord client would be nice to have the same in this client too.

    Lags, forces to restart my laptop.

    I try to open it (1.2 ver) - it causes such lags that it's unusable. Didn't try 1.0, cuz it doesn't have vc support.

    Eventually there's a bunch of errors, even blank ones. One said something along the lines of "This application didn't run properly" (random translation attempt, i have win10 in Polish)

    I own an Acer E5-575G (i5-7200U, 940MX, 8GB RAM + SSD)

    The program does not start

    Does this program have any log files? In my case, it just doesn't start. When opening the .exe file process appears in the task manager for a couple of seconds, reaches 100MB of RAM and disappears.

  • Higher Memory Usage than Discord

    Higher Memory Usage than Discord

    Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

    Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem. image

    Desktop (please complete the following information):

    • OS: [e.g. iOS] Windows 11
    • Browser [e.g. chrome, safari]
    • Version [e.g. 22]

    Additional context Add any other context about the problem here. IDK, if the Taskmanager provides any good informations, but overall, it's somehow always higher than the Electron Client about 30-110MB. Did the same things on both of the Clients, visited the same server and than opened the Friends Tab, done.

    Also, if u would like to have additional info, please ask for it and tell me how I can do it and how~ I'm happy if I can help in any way.

    Also it's Version 1.3 not 1.1.

  • Discord Lite for linux

    Discord Lite for linux

    Cyber has been talking alot about bringing this project to linux. As I think he could just make another version, there are other options for making this project work on linux.

    1. WINE - Wine is a free and open-source compatibility layer that aims to allow application software and computer games developed for Microsoft Windows to run on Unix-like operating systems.
    2. CrossOver - A more expensive version of WINE. its like $50 USD.
    3. just rewrite it or find another version of pyinstaller for linux.

    if you cant make it, then thats fine. people can use the first or second option to run discord lite on linux.
