Hi there and welcome to our community!

Helmet version 3.21.3 has already been installed, so require it as helmet in myApp.js .

You haven’t required it.

Also you have overwritten the starting express code.

const express = require('helmet');
const app = helmet();

express is supposed to be what you get from requiring in express

app is supposed to be what express() returns. You can’t app.use() with what helmet() returns.

Keep the starting code as is.

const express = require('express');
const app = express();
