For some reason it is not completing task. Help?

Here’s the full replit: boilerplate-express - Nix (beta) Repl - Replit

Sorry, Here is the link https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/back-end-development-and-apis/managing-packages-with-npm/how-to-use-package-json-the-core-of-any-node-js-project-or-npm-package

I click on the replit link and it shows “author”: “Jose M” just as shown above.

It doesn’t look like you are using the correct starter code.

It looks like you are using the starter code for the express challenges, but these lessons are for the managing packages with NPM.

I would make sure to use the correct starter code.
For example, your starter package.json should look like this

{
	"name": "fcc-learn-npm-package-json",
	"dependencies": {
		"express": "^4.14.0"
	},
	"main": "server.js",
	"scripts": {
		"start": "node server.js"
	},
	"repository": {
		"type": "git",
		"url": "https://idontknow/todo.git"
	}
}
