Introducing a new series: How to Make a Discord bot! This video covers the tools I plan to use to create and code a Discord bot.

In this video I demonstrate how use the discord developer portal to create a bot application and add it to a specific discord server using the client id.

It’s finally time to write some code! In this video, I demonstrate the very basics of coding a “hello world”-style bot with discord.js.

In this video I demonstrate how to use the node dotenv package along with a .env file to store (and hide!) API keys outside of the source code.

In this video, I demonstrate how to post GIFs to Discord from a bot.

In this video I demonstrate how to manage multiple Discord bot commands with “a command handler” built with CommonJS and require() in node.js.
