what drop-down menu

OMG ANDY YOU MADE A TYPO, I THINK ITS "pnpm start" not "npm start"

[-jainacore]

you have to put "pnpm install" and let that finish and then put "pnpm start"

[maple]

@jainacore pnpm is an 'offshoot' of npm thats apparently much quicker and efficient. its not necessarily a typo (and tbh i havent read enough about pnpm or how it might be in/compatible with regular npm packages to know if it shouldnt be used) and afaik npm and pnpm can be used in the exact same way
also to start a codespace instance you need a github account

[Andyboi]

@jainacore you need a github account btw

Sigh all of the links r blocked for me

[-jainacore]

@maple I tried it with npm start and it didn't work

[Andyboi]

did you install

[-jainacore]

@TheAndyboi I realized

[maple]

@jainacore maybe its an issue with your $PATH env variable, like maybe npm isnt properly installed or the $PATH var isnt setup properly

run this command: npm -v
if it shows your npm version number, its properly installed. then that at least narrows down the problem to probably being an issue with the argument

if that doesnt show up, run: dpkg -L npm
thisll list out any packages installed named npm. if none appear installed, then you need to manually install it. if its installed but running the npm command fails, its probly a path issue. check if the npm install location matches any paths by running: echo $PATH

[maple]

but ofc this is just a bit of troubleshooting if you or anyone else wants to use npm/doesnt have pnpm installed. if pnpm works fine for you then ignore my advice -w-
