are you using the given starting project?

I clone from the GitHub - freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-express: A boilerplate for the freeCodeCamp curriculum. and edit by adding “author” on package.json

You have cloned the wrong project. It should be freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-npm.

sorry. I pasted the wrong url. I did actually clone the correct repo, boilerplate-npm.
