Setup Discord

We need to acquire a bot token. To do this you'll have to go to https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/ and create a new application. From there you'll need to grab the client ID and use the url below to invite the bot to your server.

Authorization

We need to assign our new bot to a server. You can register the new bot with your server by opening a browser and going to: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=CLIENT_ID_GOES_HERE&scope=bot

Replace CLIENT_ID_GOES_HERE with your Client Id from the step above!

Bot Token

After authorizing your bot you'll receive a bot token. Save this for the next step where you'll need to add it to your .env file.
