using discord oauth
so atm i have a website, and a discord server with a bot. id like to allow a user to authenticate on the website with their discord account. if my understanding is right i need a bot to do this. can i use my current bot or is it a good idea to seperate authentication to a seperate bot?

- What's your exact discord.js
npm list discord.js and node node -v version?

you would definitely use the same bot because to make api requests for members the bot is in servers with
you make an "app" on discords developer section, but you don't need a discord bot, it uses the API in a completely different way than bots do.
What's the difference between app and bot
ohh makes sense, what did he mean by "it uses API in completely different way than bots"?
