Sharding via DJS and Sapphire

Hey y'all, I'm looking at the Discord.JS docs for sharding and wanting to implement that within Sapphire. From my search in this server I found to use the DJS method of using it as Sapphire doesn't support extra with that. However, there isn't a ShardManager included in Sapphire, and I still want to use the Sapphire Client options. Is that still possible with Sapphire or do I have to eliminate the SapphireClient completely (which defeats the purpose?) Cheers.
Solution:
Sapphire doesn't ship its own sharder because it works with Discordjs's, you just instantiate SapphireClient instead of Client.

Is internal sharding enabled by default on Sapphire? I see I can just add shards: 'auto' to the SapphireClientOptions.

How does this work with ShardManager though?

I just throw that on top of the normal bot?

You add that file, and it'll instantiate multiple processes with a SapphireClient each It's just that, nothing else, a new file running the ShardingManager to spawn the main file that instantiates the SapphireClient (and everything else with it)
