Question How can I program animations from the animator tab?

I'm new to Unity and I have little knowledge to scripting, but this is my last task towards my project - program WASD movements for the character.

I followed some tutorials, I managed to set up the animator thing and it works in the bottom right corner viewport. But when I tried adding C# script with basic movements, it didn't work. Is there a more easier or appropriate way to add basic scripts for the character that I could control with WASD in the main viewport?

 

I assure you it works. Source: I do it all the time.

If you're having problems, try a different tutorial.

If you have a specific problem, here is how to report problems productively in the Unity3D forums:

I'm still not sure with how I've set my project up. So far, a lot of tutorials need to write a "Rigidbody" variable in C#. In the video, the variable gets colored, mine does not. It also happens to other commands, I tried ignoring all of this, but it resulted in an error.

"public class AppleInput : MonoBehaviour" the input for me is colored, but the Mono isn't, saying it just in case.

I'll include the picture (on the left, it's the tutorial vid):


Then of course, I get this:
