In plain English

EZFN Lobbybot is a free tool that lets anyone create a Fortnite lobby bot. A lobby bot is a bot account that sits in your Fortnite friends list or party lobby and serves as a display for in-game cosmetics, such as skins and other items. According to the project description, it can be set up in under five minutes and is intended to stay online indefinitely. The project is written in Python and targets Fortnite players who want a persistent bot presence without needing to keep a full game client running. The EZFN team also runs a hosted version of this service at their website, so some users may be able to use it without running the code themselves. The README on GitHub is very brief and points visitors to the project's website and a Discord server for support. It does not include installation instructions, configuration details, or code examples in the README itself, so users looking for setup guidance would need to visit those external resources. The topics list references the fortnitepy library, which is a common Python library used to interact with Fortnite's backend services.
