2022 update (If you have just started learning) Things you need to know

1: Use node version 16 or higher to use discord.js library
2: intents needed to be passed to client so new way of using client would be

const {Client, Intents} = require( 'discord.js' )
const client = new Client( {intents: [Intents.FLAGS.GUILDS, )

Rest is same. Enjoy!

[amitgoyal]

Do we only require to study JS or NodeJs too for learning DiscordJS ?

[echomatmat]

You can just type node . Which basically run the file aswell.You can just open up terminal on visual studio code

[izziearii]

i wish you would've explained how to setup cmder :((

[darkexelive]

Hey, so my bot only runs when I use it in the cmd and not the terminal. Do you know what might be happening?

[chesterng]

Absolutely fantastic series. Helped me understand so many different aspects of bot creation!

[cheyennehamilton]

pro tip there is auto save in VSC that i use and you can still undo and redo the codes you have done

[elipson]

Can you pls make a new setup vid as now in Djs 13 there are Intents And I cannot understand a thing

[mickeymouseganghouse]

I was wondering about the repository. If you open the first folder and do your work in that, then open another folder e.g. (08-Embeds) do you replace the files in the latest folder?

[badblli]

I wish you explained how to use cmder at the beginning.

[itschris]

[Jacob-sqxk]

So Ive used glitch to script discord Bots but I'm moving here but I don't know what to do.

[trapido]

I get an error: "Valid intents must be provided for the client"

[wakicial]

when i put my package.json inside the "1-Creating-The-Bot" Folder when i try to use "node index.js" in terminal it just say something like: "code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND', requirestack: []

[echomatmat]

Awesome i use a same thing but different using discord.js

[shortign]

When i try to use node . or node index.js it does nothing at all. all of the other commands work like npm init and npm install
but I cant run the bot no error nothing
