This is a beginner tutorial explaining the process of installing Discord.JS through NPM, the Node programming language's package manager. This is the very first step for creating a Discord Bot with JavaScript / Node. While this video is specific to Discord.JS, the same process is very common with other JavaScript and Node libraries today... so this is a good skill to have for anybody new to the JavaScript world.
