Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I've made a discord bot template on github, which offers some more utility funtions.
It's a solid base to begin with, also containing this help command :)
Have a look, if you're interested!
https://github.com/nonchris/discord-bot
The cmd is nice but it doesn't ignores the classes where no commands are in. For example the my profile save class. The cmd shows it up with typing the help cmd to discord but it's actually empty.
Just subclass the HelpCommand lol
