This repository is now mostly over two years old. The code practices used within are horrible, disgusting hacks that you should avoid. People keep showing up in our support server asking about self-hosting Atlas and link to this repo, so I'm going to try and shoot down any future attempts. I want to make this really clear:

• This repository is only here for archival purposes.
• The code in this repository is terrible. If you want to learn to code, this is not the example you should be using.
• Self-hosting this version of the bot will lead to nothing but trouble. There are known security vulnerabilities with this version of the bot that will not be fixed.
• The public instance of Atlas is not using this code. The new version is closed-source - you can't host it yourself.

If you're still curious, the old readme has been kept intact as README-OLD.md. If you have questions about this repository or newer versions of Atlas, join our support server and ask in #off-topic.
