Go to the discord developer portal and login using your discord account
In the top right corner of the page, click New Application.

Give your application a name in the popup
Agree to the discord terms of service and the discord developer policy and click on create


Go into the Bot submenu and click on Add bot. Then click Yes, do it!
Now you've created your bot! Scroll down on this page and check all options under Privileged Gateway Intents. (NOTE: This will change in the future depending on the gateway intents you will actually need.)
Go into OAuth2 > URL Generator

Under scopes, click bot
Then, under Bot Permissions, click Administrator, or all permissions you are going to use
Invite your bot to your server using the link on the bottom of the page


Go back into Bot and click the Reset token button

import 'package:dartcord_core/dartcord_core.dart';

const String token = "token";

void onMessage(Message message) async {
if(message.author.isBot) return;

if(message.content == "!hello") {

}
}

void main() async {
Client c = Client();

c.onReady((User user) {
print("${user.username} is online!");
});
