when I am running node deploy.js command, it is showing this error Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open './SimpleStorage_sol_SimpleStorage.abi'

Hi, you cannot run scripts like regular node js in hardhat you should run yarn hardhat run scripts/deploy.js

@mariamsayeed Did you compile your contract and does it generate these abi and bin files in the same directory?
