# Initial Setup
## Config File
Ideally, you should save your configs in an `.env` file. Out of simplicity for this guide, we are saving it in a
`config.json` file.
Create a file named `config.json` in your project folder and insert the following content:
```json
{
"token": "YOUR_TOKEN_HERE",
"prefix": "!"
}
```
## Edit the main file
Open the `index.js` file which you have created earlier and then insert the following content:
```js
const Discord = require('discordeno')
const config = require('./config.json')
const client = Discord.createBot({
events: {
ready(client, payload) {
console.log(`Successfully connected Shard ${payload.shardId} to the gateway`)
},
},
intents: ['Guilds', 'GuildMessages'],
token: config.token,
})
Discord.startBot(client)
```
Now you can start your bot by running the following command in your terminal:
```cli
$ node index.js
```
