Meet the Node console - "Not Found" by Browser

Backend Development
1

Here are the steps that I have done, the same way I did in Managing Packages with NPM:

  • Clone this GitHub repo with
    git clone git@github.com:freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-express.git
  • npm i
  • npm start
  • write console.log("Hello World") in myApp.js
  • Open up http://localhost:3000/

Here’s what the browser looks like:

Although Hello World does show up in my terminal:

Also when I look around server.js, here’s what I found (not sure if it’s relevant):

Any this is the package.json:

{
	"name": "fcc-learn-node-with-express",
	"version": "0.1.0",
	"dependencies": {
		"express": "^4.14.0",
		"body-parser": "^1.15.2",
		"cookie-parser": "^1.4.3",
		"fcc-express-bground": "https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/fcc-express-bground-pkg.git"
	},
	"main": "server.js",
	"scripts": {
		"start": "node server.js"
	}
}

I literally just got started and I’m already stuck. Any clue is appreciated.

I’m not sure how to do that. I thought I could complete the challenges locally.
And I cloned it like 2 hours ago.

I don’t know how to push a cloned repo to my own account, so I downloaded their ZIP and git init and push it to a new repo here.

With this new repo, when I npm start the browser still shows Not Found, no error messages showing up in the browser console, however I tried submitting it to fCC and the test passed! Now I’m very confused :rofl:

After you guys typed the console.log(“Hello World”); in the myApp.js, you need to stop the terminal by holding Ctrl + C and start it again with typing npm start main. then copy the web link and submit it to the lesson’s page
