Backend Challenges -managing packages with npm - package.json

Set of exercises used to “learn the basics of using npm, including how to work with the package.json and how to manage your installed dependencies”.

General info

The purpose of the project is just personal learning. These notes are for myself, just in case I have to do this again because it was very tricky to pass the tests, even when the solutions are correct.

I tried with:

• github (this repository) - Unsuccessful
• replit @CandyTale55/candytale55-npm-freeCodeCamp">here - Unsuccessful
• glitch here - Successful

If you find this repository because you are looking for help to pass the tests, follow the steps below but please don’t cheat by copying the code. The excercises are really really easy, the issue is not with the code.

Notes to self - Steps taken:

• Glitch:
  • Paste the live site link: click on share => copy the Live Site link
  • Refresh the glitch window when you’re done with the changes before pasting the live site link and running the tests in the freeCodeCamp window. If you don’t refresh first, the freeCodeCamp test may display an error, when there’s really none.
  • Check for commas. Don’t add a comma to the last item of lists or objects. The test may fail just because the comma.

To-Dos

• I may try to make it work with replit or github just to get rid of the frustration.

Technologies

• npm
• glitch
• JS6

Setup

NA - It’s only coding examples, there’s no setup.

Status

Project is: finished, - kept for future reference.
