A multifunctional Discord bot written in Python using the discord.py library. This project demonstrates a foundational bot setup with commands, intents, and reply handling — a good starting point for expanding with more features.

This script initializes a Discord bot with:

• A custom command prefix (/)
• Intents to handle message content
• A basic set of responses
• Asynchronous programming via discord.py

It prints a ready message when connected, sets a presence status, and syncs application commands with Discord. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

• Connects and logs the bot’s online status
• Uses command prefix and slash commands
• Handles user messages with basic responses
• Demonstrates use of asynchronous behavior in Discord bots

• Python 3.8+
• discord.py

Install Discord.py with:

pip install discord.py

Create a .env file in the root directory with your bot token:

DISCORD_TOKEN=your_token_here

```bash
pip install discord.py
