In the upcoming lecture, we will be adding some code to our package.json file. It is very important that you are not using the Node and npm versions shown in the lecture video as they are very old. These should be the versions you have installed currently on your system (run node -v and npm -v to determine what you have installed)

Also, you should make sure that your version of Node is up to date and at least the current LTS version. Using the newest version of Node is risky, as there might be some bugs or breaking changes.

At the time of this writing, the latest LTS Version is 12.16.2 and npm is 6.14.4

In this case, our engines property would look like this:

  "engines": {
    "node": "12.16.2",
    "npm": "6.14.4"
  },
