What the Discord Bot Studio builds in discord.js or discord.py: slash commands, event handlers, embeds, moderation tools and data kept between runs.
It generates complete bot code for you. The bot builder offers two languages — Python (discord.py) and JavaScript (discord.js) — and whichever you pick you get:
Describe your bot's features and the AI handles the rest.
Generating the code is the first of four steps, and the other three are where most questions come from.
A plugin gets compiled, which catches its mistakes. A bot is not compiled: it is simply run, so a typo shows up as a bot that silently will not start.
That is why bot projects have a Check Code button in the Code Studio toolbar where a plugin has Build. It reads every file in the project and looks for the faults that stop a bot booting. The result — pass or fail — arrives as a message in your chat naming each file, and it carries the same Auto Fix hand-off a failed plugin build does.
Run it before you put a bot on hosting. Pressing Start in the Bot Console runs the same check by itself and refuses to start a bot that cannot boot — see Bot Hosting.
Get the token and the privileged intents right before anything else. An invalid token or a missing intent is what stops most first runs, and neither produces an obvious error message.
