📖 Key Information

# Discord **Discord** is a proprietary high-definition instant messaging, Voice over IP (VoIP), and digital distribution social platform. It is designed to facilitate the creation of online communities through various communication mediums, including text, image, video, and audio. ### Communication Channels Users interact through several modalities: * **Voice & Video Calls:** Real-time communication for individual or group sessions. * **Text Messaging:** Persistent chat interfaces supporting rich media, file sharing, and integrated emojis. * **Media Sharing:** Direct transmission of images, documents, and streaming content. ### Architecture and Infrastructure The platform’s ecosystem is organized into two primary structures: * **Direct Messaging (DM):** Private communication between individual users or small groups. * **Servers:** Robust virtual communities that serve as hubs for specific interest groups or organizations. ### Server Components A server functions as a centralized space consisting of: * **Text Channels:** Persistent rooms for topical discussions and media exchange. * **Voice Channels:** "Always-on" spaces where users can join to talk, stream their screens, or share video. * **Invite-Based Access:** Entry to servers is typically managed via unique invitation links, allowing for both public discovery and private, restricted membership.
