Drupal 8.9 site's public_html folder structure unchanged after running Composterize, next steps?
Hey I realize this is a noob question but I don't see this addressed in the documentation I've been using (drupal.org and the readme of this project).
I ran this on a local copy of an 8.8.19 site that was installed from a zip, into a public_html folder.
composer composerize-drupal --composer-root=. --drupal-root=./public_html
It finished and the last part of the feedback was:

Scaffolding files for drupal/core:

- Copy [project-root]/.gitattributes from assets/scaffold/files/gitattributes
- Copy [web-root]/.htaccess from assets/scaffold/files/htaccess

I was kinda hoping this would have transitioned the site to the recommended file structure with the web folder. Instead I still have the public_html but also with (presumably) the old vendors folder within it (there is a vendor folder in the project root, above public_html).
When I got to this state before, I was not able to update drupal core using the instructions for upgrading a composer based site. Feels like Im missing a few steps after running composerize-drupal and before attempting to update the core - that or the composerize-drupal didnt execute properly or completely?
And after running composerize-drupal, I would have thought running composer install would basically have no effect but instead another rabbit hole starting with several of these prompts: $compiser install composer/installers contains a Composer plugin which is currently not in your allow-plugins config. See https://getcomposer.org/allow-plugins Do you trust "composer/installers" to execute code and wish to enable it now? (writes "allow-plugins" to composer.json) [y,n,d,?]
I believe I am either in a place where I'm missing some basic information, or I am in some weird edge case that isnt straightforward - or some combination of both. Any helpful suggestions appreciated.
Actually after:
composer install
composer require 'drupal/core-recommended:^9' 'drupal/core-composer-scaffold:^9' 'drupal/core-project-message:^9' --update-with-dependencies --no-update
composer update
then /update.php because zsh: command not found: drush when attempting drush updatedb
i get new modules/ profiles/ sites/ and themes/ folders that look like they are stock fresh drupal download were created alongside my public_html folder and the new vendor folder siblings..
I know a complete "diagnose and resolution" post would be difficult / impossible but can i get hints even? thanks
I dont even understand by my composer.json has practically nothing in it, but i have tons of stuff in composer.lock and a vendors folder full of dependencies. I would have thought that at least drupal 8.xx would be in there as Im running (and cannot update from) 8.9.20 composer.json.txt composer.lock.txt
based on the creation of folders in my project root folder, i cd to my public_html folder to run the above composer require 'drupal/core-recommended:^9' 'drupal/core-composer-scaffold:^9' 'drupal/core-project-message:^9' --update-with-dependencies --no-update and composer update .... this made the update proceed, and the drupal admin ui shows things as updated so I guess if version alone was the goal, it worked, but now i have composer.json and composer.lock in my public_html as well as the parent folder.
Can i just filemerge the two versions into the parent folder and delete the ones in public_html OR just use the newest versions moving them up to replace the prior revisions?
It looks like I need the drupal 9 things from the public_html composer files but the contrib modules are in the set in the project root (which has Drupal 8 info). is this fixable or is this OK / supposed to be like this? composer.json.projectroot.txt composer.json.publichtml.txt composer.lock.projectroot.txt composer.lock.publichtml.txt
