Deploying commands (following guide)

Hey! I'm having trouble. When I run node deploy-commands.js, I expect the deploy-commands.js file to actually run, but it doesn't appear to be doing so. I've (to my knowledge) followed the guide as asked and I'm still having trouble. Things I've tried (per looking at pervious posts): Restarting Discord to clear commands cache, in addition to checking on my phone after trying to run the code Ensured accuracy of the guildId, clientId, and token in config.json. It is accurate.
