There are 3 ways to run the app. Pull the container image from GHCR, Rebuild the container locally, or run the app in a Node.js env.
- Pull Container from GHCR:
  - ```
  docker-compose up
```
- Rebuild Container Locally:
  - ```
  docker-compose up --build
```
- Node.js: Note: Requires Node.js v16 or higher & and MongoDB database.
  - ```
  npm i
  .\ci\postInstallFixes.sh
  npm run build
  npm run start
```
Once you can see your discord bot active in your discord server, enter this command in a text channel of the discord server.
- <prefix>add-slash-commands Where <prefix> is the PREFIX environment variable you set.
You can test the bot by entering th /ping command in a text channel. This bot uses slash commands so you should see the command list pop up once you type a / in a text channel.

Music Playback: Play audio of youtube videos in a discord voice channel.
