====Welcome to the beginner's guide to Discord!==== ===What is a server?=== Discord gives you the power to create an **invite-only** home for your friends or community - a place where you can talk, hang out, and have fun. We call these special places - **server**, and they look like this: {{https://i.imgur.com/xjNqvK2.png?400x150}} * You can join or create servers for all kinds of communities -- be it a book club šŸ“š, a dance class šŸ’ƒ , a study group šŸ–Šļø, or just some friends you want to spend time with.Ā In the case of NeuDice we have created a server to help neurodivergent business owners,staff and community in general with the day to day tasks of running or working at a business. The community is open to all though not just neurodivergent people, the idea is a community of like minded people working together to make the business world more inclusive of all. ===How to Use Text and Voice Channels=== ---------------------------------- Your server is made up of **text channels**and **voice channels**.Ā  **===Text Channels===** Text channels are separate spaces for talking over text. They keep conversations organized and give everyone plenty of room to talk. Create separate channels for all the topics your group likes to talk about -- from fishing trips to cooking tips.Ā With the focus of our community being on business all our text channels focus on that with excpetion being the ==šŸ”ā”‚general == area where that is for anything you wanna talk about **===Voice Channels===** Voice channels are where you can hang out over voice and video. There’s no calling or ringing required - just click on a voice channel to enter it. Friends in your server can see you’re in there, and pop in to talk, wave hello over video, or share their screen.Ā In our server we have ** ć€šŸ‘”ć€‘Co Working #1** voice channels with the idea being you just pop in to work along side others, where you have the opertunity to ask questions and get help if you need it, however we encourage you to think of these areas as you would a co-working physical space, so keep questions short and sweet and then respect if someone has become overwhelmed and leaves the voice chat. ====How to Talk and Hang Out in Your Server==== With voice channels, you can easily start chatting with your friends and community right away!
