How to install a custom Discord bot using Github


Summary 
Discord Bots can significantly increase server owner's and administrators' ability to monitor and manage a server. Discord bots can come in many types, from bots used exclusively for music to bots for playing games and managing server currencies, automatic moderation bots, and more. With so many possible configurations, users can use GitHub's cloning function to download any available custom bot by cloning their file repository. This is done by connecting the user's account or generating a personal access token.
