How to create a Python Discord Bot that runs 24/7 for FREE (Part 1)
Today I am uploading a video that's a little different from the rest of the content on my channel. I am teaching you how to build a discord bot from the ground up that is hosted 24/7 completely for free. This is the first part in a two-part series with this section covering the bot creation and testing while the next video will cover the hosting. Let me know in the comments if there is any topic in this video that I skim over that you would like me to cover in more detail. Drop a like if you enjoyed the video and consider subscribing to stay up to date with my content!
