1. Go to https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/ and click on Create an application.
2. After the application is created, click on Settings > Bot and you will find the token under the Build-A-Bot section. This will be used for the token setting.

create-discord-server sets up your server through Discord's API, which is accessible through a Discord bot. The following guide will walk you through how to add it to your server: https://github.com/jagrosh/MusicBot/wiki/Adding-Your-Bot-To-Your-Server

Initially, the bot will only have the permissions of a regular user. You will need to grant the bot additional permissions via a custom role. The Discord team has written instructions on how to do so here: https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/206029707-How-do-I-set-up-Permissions-. Give the bot permissions based on your use case (e.g. setting up channels = grant permission to manage channels).

After all of the above has been completed, run create-discord-server with your token and server ID, and you're finished!
