I recently used vue create to start a project and everything went smoothly. However, when I tried to run npm run serve, I encountered an issue where node couldn't locate the package.json file that was generated during the project creation process.
This problem isn't unique to Vue as I faced a similar issue while learning webpack before diving into vue cli. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to resolve it then either.
My next step is to reinstall node to see if it resolves the problem, although I'm not very optimistic about it.
Additionally, it seems like npm always searches in the wrong directory or expects files to be in the wrong place.
System information:
- Windows 10 version 2004 os build 19041.1052
- node version 14.17.0
