The official API has not been released but there's already a bunch of libraries available. For comparison, check this sheet. I have yet to look into this but there might be already a way to make a shoutbox. I'll get serious on the project in beginning of May after exams. DiscordPHP (PHP) or Discordie (Javascript) seems like good API candidates for us.

We could maybe have the #general channel as a shoutbox and others only on the App or even a channel selection on the header of the shoutbox. Credentials are my biggest question, whether I can integrate them in the site cookies or not.
