  - You will be redirected to Replit, you might have to create an account (you can Register with Google)
- Wait for the repo has finished cloning and the repl to full connect
- Click the green "Run" button at the top
- Go to the console (big black square on the right) and paste in the token you copied earlier (**Note**: ``CTRL + V`` won't work, you'll need to do ``CTRL + Shift + V`` or right-click and click paste
- Press the 'Enter' button
- Wait for it to print 'DONE' in the console, **DON'T STOP THE PROGRAM OR CLOSE THE TAB YET**
- Go back to the application page, go to the "General Information" tab, scroll down and copy application id
- Create a new discord server (you can delete it at the end)
- Enable community on the server

- In the server, go to a channel and use the ``/ping`` command on the bot
- Go to the <https://discord.com/developers/active-developer> page and register everything (**if it says you're not eligible, it's because you're not registered in their system yet. you might have to wait up to 24 hours**)
