Authorization code grant flow

Hey y'all first time discord.js user. I'm using the latest version, going through the Authorization code grant flow in the guide. It's saying I should be returning
{
"access_token": "an access token",
"token_type": "Bearer",
"expires_in": 604800,
"refresh_token": "a refresh token",
"scope": "identify"
}
{
"access_token": "an access token",
"token_type": "Bearer",
"expires_in": 604800,
"refresh_token": "a refresh token",
"scope": "identify"
}
Except I don't get this back. My console is empty. I've tried changing response_type to code, and token, and neither of them return any information in my console. I'm not sure if i've missed a step but I've been staring at the guide for about an hour and a half to no avail. Here's my index.js just like the guide, for reference.
const { request } = require('undici');
const express = require('express');
const { clientId, clientSecret, port } = require('./config.json');

const app = express();

app.get('/', async ({ query }, response) => {
const { code } = query;

if (code) {
try {
const tokenResponseData = await request('https://discord.com/api/oauth2/token', {
method: 'POST',
body: new URLSearchParams({
client_id: clientId,
client_secret: clientSecret,
code,
grant_type: 'authorization_code',
redirect_uri: `http://localhost:${port}`,
scope: 'identify',
}).toString(),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
},
});

const oauthData = await tokenResponseData.body.json();
console.log(oauthData);
} catch (error) {
// NOTE: An unauthorized token will not throw an error
// tokenResponseData.statusCode will be 401
console.error(error);
}
}

return response.sendFile('index.html', { root: '.' });
});



app.listen(port, () => console.log(`App listening at http://localhost:${port}`));
const { request } = require('undici');
const express = require('express');
const { clientId, clientSecret, port } = require('./config.json');

const app = express();

app.get('/', async ({ query }, response) => {
const { code } = query;

if (code) {
try {
const tokenResponseData = await request('https://discord.com/api/oauth2/token', {
method: 'POST',
body: new URLSearchParams({
client_id: clientId,
client_secret: clientSecret,
code,
grant_type: 'authorization_code',
redirect_uri: `http://localhost:${port}`,
scope: 'identify',
}).toString(),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
},
});

const oauthData = await tokenResponseData.body.json();
console.log(oauthData);
} catch (error) {
// NOTE: An unauthorized token will not throw an error
// tokenResponseData.statusCode will be 401
console.error(error);
}
}

return response.sendFile('index.html', { root: '.' });
});



app.listen(port, () => console.log(`App listening at http://localhost:${port}`));
and my index.html

Well that’s for making bots right? All I’m trying to do is authorize users, not necessarily make a bot, it’s in a section of the discord.js so I thought I could come here for help
