Treehouse StaffHey Dazeran Zamri 👋
Looks like you're in the wrong directory when running the command. You'll want to make sure to change into the directory where the project files are located.
Judging from the error snippet you've shared it looks like you're located in the /react-basics folder but you'll want to move into the grocery-list directory. This is where the package.json file is located that is required to run the install command.
Hope this will help to get you going again 😃
