First you need to go to [here](https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me) and click "New Application"

Now give your bot a name and a picture, a description isn't necessary.

Now you can get your bot's token, by using the "click to reveal button" in the app bot user section.

There's your token! Now its time to invite your bot to your server. Don't worry about your bot being started for this next step. Change the client_id to your Client ID under App Details, then go to this url
```https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?&client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE&scope=bot&permissions=0```

Now select your sever, then click authorize.
