 Once you have set everything up you can run main.py directly. (Useful in combination with systemd, Upstart, PM2, etc.)

+# Prologue
+
+Systemd is a nice tool to start, stop and restart scripts on your linu machine. If your script crashes or the VPS does a system reboot your scripts will come back online.  
+In order to use this you need to be on Linux, have systemd, the discord-twitter-bot has been properly installed and it has worked before.
+
+# Setup
+
+Copy the dtb.service file and put it to /etc/systemd/system  
+`cp dtb.service /etc/systemd/system/dtb.service`
+
+Edit dtb.service  
+`nano /etc/systemd/system/dtb.service`
+
+Adjust the `WorkingDirectory` to the path you git cloned the `discord-twitter-bot` folder/repository.  
+
+Adjust the path of your python executable (first parameter of `ExecStart`):   
+```coffeescript
+tin@Riftshadow:~# which python3
+/usr/bin/python3
+tin@Riftshadow:~# which python3.5
+/usr/bin/python3.5
+```
+
+Adjust the path to main.py (second parameter of `ExecStart`)     
+`<...>/discord-twitter-bot/bot/main.py`
+
+# systemd commands
+
+```coffeescript
+sudo systemctl start dtb.service
+sudo systemctl enable dtb.service
+sudo systemctl disable dtb.service
+sudo systemctl stop dtb.service
+sudo systemctl restart dtb.service
+```
+
+`enable` means that the service is automatically started when your VPS boots up.
