Creating a Bot

For Episode 1: https://youtu.be/NxOxcgbikJo

Discord Developer Portal: https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/ Java Discord API(JDA): https://github.com/DV8FromTheWorld/JDA#third-party-recommendations Creating Bots: https://github.com/DV8FromTheWorld/JDA/wiki/3%29-Getting-Started

The first thing to do is to make a New Project. Select Maven project. When for groupId, type a package name like me.illuminatiproductions, but make yours unique. For artifactId, just put the name of the project. Press Finish. (I enable auto-import when it pops up but idk if you really NEED it) Now, insert the XML code in the files below. (Be sure to replace the VERSION key below with the one of the versions shown on the github page). Now, create a class so that we can start coding the bot. At this point follow the video and I'll provide all the code below.

ourbot.java

import net.dv8tion.jda.core.JDA;
import net.dv8tion.jda.core.JDABuilder;

public class App {

    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception{

        JDA jda = new JDABuilder("putYourBot'sTokenHere").build();

    }

}
