+ Installing Python
57
+ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
58
+
59
+ 1. Go to the `Python Download Page <https://www.python.org/downloads/ >`_ and download a version of Python 3
60
+ 2. Follow the installation setup (if you're on Windows, check "add python to PATH" in the setup script)
61
+ 3. Python is now installed on your system
62
+
63
+ Installing dependencies
64
+ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
65
+
66
+ Choose a version of discord.py, there are currently 2 major versions, rewrite (v1.0) and async (v0.16.x).
67
+
68
+ * Rewrite is a newly developed version of discord.py, it's fully usable but it's still in active development
69
+ * Async is the stable version of discord.py
70
+ * If you are uncertain about which version to choose, rewrite has more functionalities than async
71
+
72
+ Rewrite and async is **not ** compatible.
73
+
74
+ After you chose the version you want to use, go to the directory in this GitHub repo with the version name.
75
+ The rest of the dependencies installation tutorial will be in the README.rtf of that directory.
