You'll need to login into messenger using the Facebook login information. You can't use Messenger without a Facebook account.

The messenger app has two icons on the bottom.
Chats icon to see all existing chats, group chats and to search and compose new chats, and people icon where you can see people that are active right now from your Facebook friend’s list.
You can also view Facebook Story posts here too.

There is also an option for changing settings. You can get there by clicking your profile picture. Options such as dark mode and active status can be changed here.
