Here is the working code, just read the documentation and you can fix everything by yourself: https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/main/general/welcome

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require("discord.js");

const client = new Client({
    intents:[
      GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
      GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
      GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
      GatewayIntentBits.GuildMembers
    ],
});

const settings = {
   prefix: 't!',
   token: 'Your bot token'
};

client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log(`${client.user.tag} je online :D`);
});

client.on('messageCreate', (message) => {
  if (message.author.bot) return;
  if (!message.content.startsWith(settings.prefix)) return;

  if(message.content.startsWith(settings.prefix + "ping")) {
    message.reply({ content: "Pong!" });
  };
  
});

client.login(settings.token);
