In Git Bash, the command `npm start` returns an error

Question

I'm using Windows 10 64 bit and VSCode.

package.json :

{
  "name": "shopping-list",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "shopping list desktop app",
  "main": "main.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "electron ."
  },
  "author": "YousefMahmoud",
  "license": "MIT",
  "dependencies": {
    "electron": "^4.0.2"
  }
}

See the screenshot of the error:

Answer 1

When you see a filled dot in front of a file name in Visual Studio Code, that means the file is modified, but not yet saved on the disk.

Make sure to "Save All" files first, then try again your command.
