Steps To Install

This has only been tested on ubuntu and raspberry pi OS, though it should work for all debian based distributions that have apt (and systemd for running on startup).

This install script requires that you already have a bot registered with discord and have access to the bot token.
You can make a bot/access its token at https://discord.com/developers/applications
