Can you still get it into Download (Odin) mode? If you can, follow the same steps - run Odin, load the ROM into Odin, run Odin, etc.

If you can't boot into anything, you'll need at least a JTAG service to force the stock ROM into it. Look on eBay for one that handles the Note 8.

I didn't know you could delete the recovery partition.

Can you boot into recovery mode by pressing power, volume up, and bixby simultaneously?

If so, you can then factory reset and it will reload the OS.

Phone is most likely rooted, so yes you can accidentally delete mission critical stuff :) it's fixable though
