Test failed : package.json should have a valid author key

Tell us what’s happening:

I am new to FCC here, got started w/ managing packages w/ npm

  • In the first test, I added the author key as mentioned in the repl.it
  • BUt when I am pasting the link of the repl and trying to process - it is saying test failed, the package.json should have a valid key “author”

This is my package.json

{
	"name": "fcc-learn-npm-package-json",
  "author" : "Dtech-Dbug",
	"dependencies": {
		"express": "^4.14.0"
	},
	"main": "server.js",
	"scripts": {
		"start": "node server.js"
	},
	"repository": {
		"type": "git",
		"url": "https://idontknow/todo.git"
	}
}

Hi @Dtech-Dbug !

Welcome to the forum!

Yep :grinning:
A lot of people new to the backend challenges ran into the same issue when using replit for the first time.

Glad you were able to figure it out :grinning:
