How to add button components for role assignments to your Python Discord bot with Nextcord.

In this video, I will be using the Nextcord fork of Discord.py to make button components that correspond to roles that will be assigned to the user when they click them. This is similar to the old way of doing reaction roles, but this time, we can use real buttons!

The buttons used in this video are persistent, meaning they do not timeout and will continue working even if the bot restarts.

❗Note: The on_ready event listener may run multiple times. At 8:00 in the video, you can modify the function to avoid adding the view multiple times by checking if it has already been added using a variable on the bot. (See https://github.com/nextcord/nextcord/... for an example)
