Discord is one of the most popular VoIP programs available at the moment. The app lets you hang out with your friends on highly customisable servers and can be tuned to meet whatever you’re thinking of doing.
Discord uses a library called highlight.js to build its interfaces. While the UI doesn’t give you an option to change text colours, you can change the way the text appears when everyone else sees it in their inboxes or servers by writing code in your chatbox.
We’ll be encapsulating our text in three backticks (found above the Tab key) followed by a colour scheme command.
```fix
Some text here
```
There are several limitations to this method. You will have to write the code for each line you send on Discord. Any messages you send using this method will also be shown in a box on the viewer’s end.
Here are the colour codes you can use for different colours, including
