DinkleBot

Dinklebot is a companion app for Destiny 2.

I plan to use this project to learn about modern swift patterns, test out new frameworks/libraries and maintain a knowledge base.

Why the Name

Where did the name "Dinklebot" come from initially?

Ghosts were sometimes called "Dinklebots" by players, as a nod to Peter Dinklage,23 who provided their voice in the game. As of The Taken King, Nolan North replaced Dinklage as Ghost's voice actor and redubbed lines from the original Destiny game.24 Players have started to call this new Ghost "Nolandroid", though Nolan North himself prefers "Nolanbot".25
