- What's your exact discord.js
npm list discord.js and node node -v version?

my whole code
if some can help with all of it then that would be great
m first time coding
thank you:)
ive been attempting this code for literall 5 hours
and every time i change stuff i get a new error very frustratingthats v13 code
that code doesnt make much sense either
That's not v13 that's an http bot
Your using express to respond to interactions
And then adding a gateway too
the client constructor is v13
Yeah part of the code is gateway and the other http
Ai?
Thank you and yes I was using chatgpt to help me lol
can yall help me?
im getting this error while trying to do node index.js
and thats my code (directly copied from the dicord.js guide)
you uncommented a comment, and now you have a syntaax error
which is basic js
my first time coding
can u help me fix it? idk what you mean
discord.js is designed for people with fundamental JS knowledge
if you don't understand what a comment is and isn't, then you have a lot of work to do before coding a bot
i understand but im not coding a bot. i literally just wanna have a single slash command that does nothing. so i thought i could do that first
i expected it to be extremely simple
It is, if you know js
