Creating-your-bot guide is quite confusing

I'm at the commands handling / registering slash commands part of the guide. In the guide, at registering slash commands it doesn't do any changes to index.js, but on github the files are different?

those are the command / event handling parts deploying your commands is separate of that

Yeah I just realized I was looking in the wrong folder on Github, I still can't really get the bot to recognize commands though. I basically have exactly this: https://github.com/discordjs/guide/tree/main/code-samples/creating-your-bot/event-handling + the deploy.commands file I don't really have javascript experience at all, I just want to get the base bot up and running with slash commands so I can start messing with stuff, the only way I learn is by doing

you need basic js knowledge to make a bot, #rules 3 #resources has good guides

I know that's the normal way to do it, but I don't work that way. If you could lend a hand just to get these slash commands recognized I'd be grateful

the guide should explain everything. Working with the filesystem to import your command is basic js

I went through the guide, did everything up to this point, however there's no success message, there's no working command.

you're running your index file not the file that deploys your commands
