Discord Bot

Setup

First to Setup a Bot in your Server please follow the official documentation here: https://discord.com/developers/docs/getting-started#step-1-creating-an-app

From there you will be able to get your Server's ID, we will name it GUILD_ID in the Installation phase. You'll also need your Bot's Token that we're calling BOT_TOKEN
