 # stereo.cat backend  
   
 written in Go, uses Gin.
+
+## database shit  
+  
+Instead of using Discord oAuth as a database, we instead use it as a login source, only using it to source a username/id, avatar data and a secure login/registration flow.  
+We store these attributes alongside stereo.cat specific attributes in our own database. There is a trade-off however: this means that avatar & username data is not updated in real-time, only when the oauth flow is executed.
