npm commands are mapped to something already crafted in your package.json . . .

it cannot find the package.json file to see what npm restart is mapped to.

in other words, you don't have a node project sef to being with . . .

so what are you restarting?

How come I have a nodejs.org folder and a node_modules folder on my home page

When i type npm restart i get these error ...i have not created a directory also, how do i proceed

i use ubuntu Lts 16.04 and my home directory contains a file called nodejs.org and node_modules
