I am following the Wes-bos tutorial of learn-node. When I do npm start, it gives me these errors. Please help me. I have referred to all the previous questions. I am not able to find anything.
You have to run npm start
in the root of the project you want to run, it seems you are runing npm start
in a folder where there is not a package.json
file.
The error says that you are running npm start
in this path C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\package.json
but it seems that inside that folder you don't have a package.json
file, so maybe you are in a wrong folder location.
So, if you downloaded some code to get started with, you should move to the root of that code and then run npm start
.
If you are starting a new app, you have to run npm init
first, that command will create a package.json
file in the same location where you are in the console and then you will be able to run npm start
.
