Updating bot without shutting it down,

Hey so my question is pretty straightforward; is there any reliable/recommended way to update slash commands and other stuff without shutting the bot down or something? Curious to find out

You can just run a deploy script to update slash commands, it doesn't care if the bot is online or not, so yes, as for other stuff, what stuff are we talking about?

ast least for commands, you don't need to shut it down, you can modify them on runtime you can even do it from the bot itself without a separate script
