Discord.js uses an event-driven architecture, where you register event listeners for various events and respond accordingly. For example, the following code logs the bot in when it's ready:

index.tsx
client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
});

You can also listen for events such as messages being sent:

index.tsx
client.on('message', msg => {
  if (msg.content === 'ping') {
    msg.reply('Pong!');
  }
});

Finally, you need to log your bot in with your Discord API token:

index.tsx
client.login('your-token-goes-here');

This is just a basic example to get you started. Discord.js has many more features, such as voice support, user mentions, and message attachments. Check out the Discord.js documentation for more information.
