Hi @momoh001

This shows there is no package.json file in the root of your repository. Looking at the repository link you provided, the repository is empty.

Previously it appears everything existed in the nft-minting-app-main directory of your repository. What was required in that case was to set the base directory to nft-minting-app-main in the build settings.
