Orbbis Docs

Everything you need to create, configure, and host your Discord bot — no coding required.

✦ What is Orbbis?

A free, browser-based Discord bot builder

Orbbis is a visual editor that lets you configure a fully functional Discord bot step by step and download it as a ready-to-run ZIP file. No coding, no servers, no accounts required.

Everything runs directly in your browser. Your bot token and data are never sent to our servers — they stay on your device at all times.

💡

Your generated bot is written in Node.js using the discord.js library. You can edit the source files after downloading if you want to customize further.

🚀 Quick start

From zero to a running bot in under 10 minutes

1
Create a Discord Application
Go to the Discord Developer Portal, click New Application, name it, then go to Bot → Reset Token and copy your token.
2
Paste your token in Step 1
Open the Orbbis editor, paste your token and click Validate. Your bot's name and avatar will appear automatically.
3
Configure commands and systems
Add custom commands with text, embed or image responses. Enable built-in systems like Welcome, Moderation, or Auto-Moderation in Step 3.
4
Download and run
Click Download ZIP, unzip it, and run pip install -r requirements.txt followed by python bot.py. Or use one of the one-click hosting options.
5
Invite your bot to a server
Use the invite link generated in Step 5 of the editor to add your bot to your Discord server.

01 Token & Identity

Connect your bot and set its personality

Your bot token is a secret key that lets your bot log in to Discord. You get it from the Discord Developer Portal.

⚠️

Never share your token. Anyone with your token can control your bot. If it leaks, go to the Developer Portal and click Reset Token immediately.

In this step you can also set your bot's prefix (the character users type before commands, like ! or /), a custom status message, and choose the activity type (Playing, Watching, Listening).

You must also enable the three Privileged Intents in the Developer Portal → Bot → Privileged Gateway Intents:

  • Presence Intent — required to read user presence/status
  • Server Members Intent — required for welcome messages and member events
  • Message Content Intent — required to read message content for prefix commands

02 Commands

Create custom commands your users can trigger

Each command has a name (e.g. !hello) and a response. Responses can be:

  • Text — a plain text message
  • Embed — a rich embed with title, description, color, and optional image
  • Image — a message with an image uploaded to ImgBB

You can use Discord formatting in responses: **bold**, *italic*, __underline__, ~~strikethrough~~.

💡

Underline formatting (__text__) does not work inside embeds — it is a Discord limitation, not an Orbbis bug.

03 Systems

Built-in modules you can toggle on or off

Systems are pre-built features you can enable with a single click. Each one has configurable options.

  • Welcome — sends a message when a new member joins your server
  • Auto-moderation — automatically filters bad words or Discord invite links
  • Tickets — lets users open private support tickets

04 Download

Get your bot's source files as a ZIP

Click Download ZIP to get a ready-to-run Node.js bot. The ZIP contains:

  • index.js — the main bot file
  • package.json — Node.js dependencies (discord.js)
  • .env — your bot token (pre-filled)
  • README.md — quick start instructions

To run locally: install Node.js 18+, then:

npm install
node index.js

05 Add to Discord

Invite your bot to your server

Orbbis generates an invite link with the correct permissions for your bot. Click Open Invite Link, select your server, and click Authorize.

Your bot needs to be running (either locally or on a host) to appear online after being invited.

🖥️ Hosting options

Keep your bot online 24/7

Running node index.js on your computer works, but your bot goes offline when you close it. For 24/7 uptime, use a hosting service:

✦
Railway Free tier
Upload your ZIP directly. No setup required. Ideal for most bots. railway.app
✦
Render Free tier
Connect a GitHub repo or deploy directly. render.com
$
DigitalOcean From $6/mo
Full VPS control. Best for larger bots or multiple services. digitalocean.com

❓ FAQ

Is Orbbis free?

Yes. Orbbis is completely free, forever. No account, no subscription, no hidden fees.

Is my token safe?

Yes. Your token is only used to call Discord's API directly from your browser. It is never sent to Orbbis servers. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Can I edit the generated bot code?

Absolutely. The generated bot.py is plain Python and fully editable. Orbbis gives you a solid starting point; you can extend it however you like.

Can I save my project and come back later?

Yes. In Step 5, click Save project (orbbis.json) to download a project file. To continue editing, open the editor and click Import project.

My bot is online but commands don't work. What's wrong?

Make sure all three Privileged Intents are enabled in the Discord Developer Portal (Presence, Server Members, Message Content). Also verify your prefix matches what you typed in Step 1.

I need help. Where can I ask?
