How to Chat
How does the bot work in Discord? First of all, you have to join our Discord server. Then, you can ping the bot with @deepkit and ask your question. The bot will automatically create a new thread for you and answer your question in a new message.
Now, after you got the first answer, you can continue chatting with the bot by keep pinging it. If you are not satisfied with the answer, you can ask the bot to edit and fix it. The bot will then edit its previous message until you are satisfied. You can of course also create follow-up questions, which the bot will answer in the same thread.
By carefully asking questions and asking the bot to edit its message, you can create a nice and clean documentation page not only for your, but other users as well since all questions and answers are public on this page.
