Naticord

Naticord is a Discord client focused on bringing the best experience possible natively.

Naticord uses DirectUI and Windows Forms, both bringing a native look to the client. DirectUI is an undocumented language made by Microsoft and was never released publicly. The library used in Naticord for DirectUI is DirectUI.Net.

Why can't you login in using an e-mail and password?

Discord uses intense security measures to prevent custom clients from signing in using an e-mail and password, meaning there is no reliable way to sign in with this method without getting banned on a custom client. This is why Naticord is moving away from this approach and using easier methods instead like using a QR code to sign in.

This feature will not be coming in the future as it is a pain to maintain and I am not willing to fight through the pain of just getting to sign in.
