Managing Packages with NPM - Expand Your Project with External Packages from npm

Backend Development

Tell us what’s happening: I’m having difficulty understanding how to solve the step. It’s asking me to Add version 1.1.0 of the @freecodecamp/example package to the dependencies field of your package.json file.

Note: @freecodecamp/example is a faux package used as a learning tool.

Your code so far

{
“name”: “fcc-learn-npm-package-json”,
“author”: “Aaron X”,
“description”: “A simple npm package”,
“keywords”: [ “freecodecamp”, “npm”, “package”, “json”, “node”, “javascript” ],
“license”: “MIT”,
“version”: “1.0.0”,
“dependencies” {
“package-name”: “version”,
“express”: “1.1.0”

}
“main”: “server.js”,
“scripts”: {
“start”: “node server.js”
},
“repository”: {
“type”: “git”,
“url”: “GitHub - freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-npm: A boilerplate for the freeCodeCamp curriculum.”
}
}

Your dependencies currently has Express version 1.1.0. You can follow that example and add the new one just like that, below it.

"package-name": "version",

You can remove this, it’s just to explain the syntax. Again, the new package to add is called "@freecodecamp/example" and it’s version "1.1.0"

(just FYI, I’ve moved this to the Backend Development subforum)
