Mention how much "just install-all" is faster than "just setup-all"
This way, the "installing" sections would cover from beginners to advanced (professional) readers.

# Setting up MX Puppet Discord bridging (optional)
**Note**: bridging to [Discord](https://discordapp.com/) can also happen via the [matrix-appservice-discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-discord.md)and [mautrix-discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-discord.md) bridges supported by the playbook.
- For using as a Bot we recommend the [Appservice Discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-discord.md), because it supports plumbing.
- For personal use with a discord account we recommend the [mautrix-discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-discord.md) bridge, because it is the most fully-featured and stable of the 3 Discord bridges supported by the playbook.
The playbook can install and configure [mx-puppet-discord](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/discord/mx-puppet-discord) for you.
See the project page to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
To enable the [Discord](https://discordapp.com/) bridge, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
matrix_mx_puppet_discord_enabled: true
```
## Installing
After configuring the playbook, run it with [playbook tags](playbook-tags.md) as below:
<!-- NOTE: let this conservative command run (instead of install-all) to make it clear that failure of the command means something is clearly broken. -->
```sh
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,ensure-matrix-users-created,start
```
**Notes**:
- The `ensure-matrix-users-created` playbook tag makes the playbook automatically create the bot's user account.
- The shortcut commands with the [`just` program](just.md) are also available: `just install-all` or `just setup-all`
`just install-all` is useful for maintaining your setup quickly ([2x-5x faster](../CHANGELOG.md#2x-5x-performance-improvements-in-playbook-runtime) than `just setup-all`) when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your `vars.yml` to remove other components, you'd need to run `just setup-all`, or these components will still remain installed.
## Usage
Once the bot is enabled you need to start a chat with `Discord Puppet Bridge` with the handle `@_discordpuppet_bot:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
Three authentication methods are available, Legacy Token, OAuth and xoxc token. See mx-puppet-discord [documentation](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/discord/mx-puppet-discord) for more information about how to configure the bridge.
Once logged in, send `list` to the bot user to list the available rooms.
Clicking rooms in the list will result in you receiving an invitation to the bridged room.
Also send `help` to the bot to see the commands available.
