Would recommend downloading visual studio code.

Step 1: Create A Project Folder & Open CMD.

Step 2: Browse To The Project File & Install Dependencies
cd {PATH TO PROJECT}

Now let's install what we need..
npm install nodejs
npm install discord.js
npm install


Step 3: Adding The Bot Code, Open Visual Studio Code
Start off with creating 2 files: index.js, botconfig.json
  • package.json - add this code

  • index.js - add this code

Step 4: Bug Testing, Let's See If It Works!
Unminimize the CMD window and type:
node index.js


Should start up no problem. If you need help feel free to ask, this is an easy tutorial on a quick bot.

With discord v12, rich embed codes were changed, I will be updating the code in a couple minutes.
