Section titled How to contributeHow to contribute

Since this guide is made specifically for the discord.js community, we want to be sure to provide the most relevant and up-to-date content. We will, of course, make additions to the current pages and add new ones as we see fit, but fulfilling requests is how we know we're providing content you all want the most.

Requests may be as simple as "add an example to the frequently asked questions page", or as elaborate as "add a page regarding sharding". We'll do our best to fulfill all requests, as long as they're reasonable.

To make a request, simply head over to the repository's issue tracker and create a new issue! Title it appropriately, and let us know exactly what you mean inside the issue description. Make sure that you've looked around the site before making a request; what you want to request might already exist!

Remember that you can always fork the repository and make a pull request if you want to add anything to the guide yourself!

Tip

We'll also get into some of the more advanced features this guide does below.

Section titled Code blocksCode blocks

We use Code Hike. Here are some example code blocks, which should be easy to grasp and learn upon reading the source code of this page:


_10const HELLO = 'hello' as const;
_10console.log(HELLO);
_10// "ts" is the language of the code block.

fileName

anotherFileName


_10const FILE_NAME = 'fileName' as const;
_10if (FILE_NAME.includes(' ')) throw new Error('Spaces cannot be used in file names.');

requiredName


_10const FILE_NAME_3 = 'requiredName' as const;
_10if (!FILE_NAME) throw new Error('There must be a file name to use panels!');
_10// The --- divider was used to create a panel.
