DiscordAPIError
I've recently begun programming using discord.js and when I try to deploy my commands I get this error:

You are reading a file as a directory. Do note that if you are following our guides, the guide expects the commands file to be inside subdirectories in the "commands" folder
this is my folder layout
now thers the error:
