REST API
The Requester
is used to create HTTPs requests with the Discord API through Routes.
This automatically handles rate limitations (429) that restrict our request rates. For that it uses an implementation
of RateLimiter specific for a certain AccountType.

The RestAction can be found throughout JDA and allows
to specify how the Requester should deal with rate limits.
It has extensions with additional functionalities in net.dv8tion.jda.core.requests.restaction.
In the case of a failed Request the RestAction will be provided with an ErrorResponseException
which contains a ErrorResponse representing the failure cause!
WebSocket API
The WebSocketClient is used to
handle the Event flow and connection to the Discord gateway.
It can send Presence updates that will determine how
the Discord Client will display the currently connected account (Online Status / Game)
