Managing Packages with NPM - How to Use package.json, the Core of Any Node.js Project or npm Package

JavaScript

For the first task in the node section, I submitted the URL to a project I have on GitHub where I have my name as the author, but yet when I submit my answer, it runs a test and says package.json should have a valid “author” key - and it won’t let me go past this page. WHY is this test failing when it is so obvious that my name IS in the author field?

Here is the link I provided for my solution: MyEJStemplate/package.json at master · susanwinters214/MyEJStemplate · GitHub

Hi @susanwinters2141 !

Welcome to the forum!

You will need to submit a live link.
You can run the server locally and submit the localhost.

But also, for these tests you will need to use the starter provided for you so the tests can run properly.

Hi Jessica, I tried following the tutorial you shared (very well written btw), but I still get errors even after starting a local server…
when you mention using “the starter provided”, are you talking about cloning GitHub - freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-npm: A boilerplate for the freeCodeCamp curriculum. ?
