Question 1

What is DWEEB?

Accepted Answer

DWEEB (Discord Webhook Embed Builder) is a free visual editor for designing Discord webhook messages with Components V2. You build rich messages with containers, sections, buttons and media, preview them live, then export or share them via a single URL.

Question 2

Do I need to write JSON or run a backend?

Accepted Answer

No. The builder is fully visual and runs entirely in your browser. There is no JSON to write, no backend to host, and no account to create.

Question 3

How does sharing work?

Accepted Answer

Your message is encoded into the URL hash fragment, so a single link reproduces the exact message. The fragment is never sent to a server, keeping your draft private.

Question 4

Is DWEEB free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is completely free and runs entirely in your browser. There is no paywall, no sign-up, and no usage limit.

Question 5

What is Discord Components V2?

Accepted Answer

Components V2 is Discord's layout system for messages. Instead of a single content field and embeds, a message is built from components such as containers, sections, text displays, buttons, select menus, media galleries, files and separators. This builder supports every component a webhook can send.

Question 6

Can I add buttons and select menus to a webhook message?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can add link buttons to any webhook message. Interactive buttons and select menus (which carry a custom_id) only work when the webhook is owned by a Discord application or bot, because a backend must receive the click. The builder detects who owns your webhook and warns you before sending.

Question 7

Do I need a Discord bot to send the message?

Accepted Answer

No. Any Discord webhook URL works for posting layout, text, media and link-button messages. A bot or application-owned webhook is only required if you want interactive components (custom_id buttons or select menus) to respond to clicks.

Question 8

Can I edit a Discord message I already sent?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use Restore to pull a message your webhook previously posted back into the editor with its webhook URL and message ID, make changes, and send an update in place. Only messages the same webhook originally posted can be edited.
