I am not sure what causes my deployment to be conflicting

Dear Community,
I have a repository that contains an api repo and a client.
the strucutre looks as follows:
main repo (other name)
-api
-client
package.json
Within the package.json, I have it set up as follows:
{
“name”: “your-future-property”,
“version”: “1.0.0”,
“description”: “”,
“main”: “index.js”,
“type”: “module”,
“scripts”: {
“dev”: “nodemon api/index.js”,
“start”: “node api/index.js”,
“build”: “npm install && npm install --prefix client && npm run build --prefix client”
},
“repository”: {
“type”: “git”,
“url”: “git+https://github.com/HerRA17/your-future-property.git”
},
“keywords”: ,
“author”: “”,
“license”: “ISC”,
“bugs”: {
“url”: “Issues · HerRA17/your-future-property · GitHub”
},
“homepage”: “GitHub - HerRA17/your-future-property: A Real Estate Project, hosting different Properties.”,
“dependencies”: {
“bcryptjs”: “^2.4.3”,
“cookie-parser”: “^1.4.6”,
“dotenv”: “^16.4.5”,
“express”: “^4.18.3”,
“jsonwebtoken”: “^9.0.2”,
“mongoose”: “^8.2.0”,
“nodemon”: “^3.1.0”
}
}

I have tried to deploy the project with no build settings & with it.
Both have had an unsuccessful outcome (without settings has a hosted link that renders 404 and the other will break while building).
Is there any suggestions I could get?
What could I share extra to be more helpful

The start script is not supported on Netlify. If this is required to run the API you will need to host this part elsewhere.

As for build the client, set the base directory to client, the build command to npm run build and the publish directory to dist (note: client is automatically prepended to this.)
