A free hands-on workshop where Rex Mundi students build a real, working Discord bot in Python — from your first command to a bot with live data, moderation tools, and a working minigame. No experience required.
Six modules. Every one ships something that actually runs by the time you close your laptop.
Your bot logs into Discord and answers its first command.
!pingDice rolls, a magic 8-ball, random picks — your bot gets an attitude.
!roll · !8ballIt reads the channel and reacts to what people say, on its own.
on_messagePull live data from the internet and post it as a rich embed.
!pokemonRun polls, show profiles, and clean up chat — safely.
!poll · !clearRock, paper, scissors — with real clickable buttons.
!rpsYou write actual Python from the first ten minutes. No slides, no pseudocode.
Both instructors sat in your seat before university. They know exactly where you'll get stuck.
The bot, the code, and the skills stay yours after we pack up.
About 30 seats, so you get real help the moment something breaks.
Five sessions, two hours each — ten hours total.
