Because I think under ctrl kinda missed the title of this video of "Do you really need a bot dashboard": It comes to the complexity and features of your bot. Let's say you make a bot that only has one feature i.e.: welcomer (greeting people on join), then I think using some sorts of in-discord (in-app) config solution is perfectly fine, or if it's a bot just for your server it's completely fine to just code variables into a JSON file (called "hard coding"). If your bot aims to many features (such as Waya/Wamellow), I think you're better of making a dashboard, for multiple reasons: - In-discord (in-app) config can get overwhelming and confusing for the users of your bot, that's what I see a lot with Waya's config solution. - Dashboards have a greater overview, can be more personalized to your bot needs. - In-discord (in-app) configs can end up like mine with 9.000 line of total code just for the config in a single file, completely no way to continue working on it, completely in efficient and slow to run, leads to multiple interaction failed inside of discord. - Dashboards can have better general user experience and design compared to in-app configs. TL;DR: When should you use a static (not changing) JSON file: - when it's private, just for your and/or for your friends server. When should you use a in-discord (in-app) config command (using JSON): - when you want to use it in multiple of your servers and maybe a small public bot. When should you use a in-discord (in-app) config command (using a database, i.e.: MongoDB): - when you plan to make a public bot with not all too many features. When should you make a web dashboard (using a database, i.e.: MongoDB): - when you plan to make a (biggerish) public bot with kinda a lot of features **OR** want to learn web development.

Appreciate the in-depth explanation! The title of this video is really targeted for the majority (beginners) who are just looking to make a dashboard but don't really know what's needed to build one. So it's primarily meant to help viewers make a decision on IF they need a dashboard based on what you have to learn. I can see how you interpreted it the though. With that being said, your points are valid for users deciding on WHEN they need a dashboard for their bot, and for that reason, *Pin* 📌 Cheers!

Discord JS is cool but i think when you just learn some java basics its way easier to create a bot with jda. i tried javascript and it was something else oh boi
