[Guide] What you need for making a bot

This topic was created in the reason to answer this type of questions:

My computer is broken / doesn't have space, can I make a bot on the phone?

Where should I copy / paste from / to ?

I don't find any elements in Visual C# like: snake, dig, <do that>, <do something>. There are only useless stuff like panels and labels. What are these?

wtf is an interface?

In first place you should know what is:
     - a computer;
     - the internet;
     - a client / server model;
     - a text editor;
     - a programming language;
     - a compiler;

To make a bot you need:
     - a computer;
     - an operating system;
     - a text editor;
     - a compiler;

If you don't know this fundamentals you don't deserve help.

I do not understand this. How does simply not understanding simply make you not deserve to understand a more simplified understandable version that can be understood?

As you quoted me "this are fundamentals". More simple than that you are not gonna find.
If you get deeper into, its an appreciation.

I do both agree as disagree here.
People should first learn at least some stuff before attempting making a bot, look for some tutorials (there are plenty youtube tutorials I heard) and get to know the programming language (probably C#) a bit.

But at the same time the documentation of EE is rather slim and sometimes outdated

P.S. Shouldn't know what you mean with the server model, yet still I was able to make a (somewhat) legit bot, as am I not surprised when people that learn how to program through youtube videos wouldn't know what a compiler is.
