GDSC Role Bot Serverless

This is the repository for our new free serverless solution, which replaces our old one that would cost about $2 a month to run on a compute engine instance. It uses a combination of App Script and Cloud Functions to retrieve a list of discord tags from our 2023-2024 General Membership Google Form and apply the General Member role to them accordingly.
