NodeJS app builds with Heroku, but it shows application error

I am setting up a NodeJS Heroku app. I just want an empty app up and running.

My dir includes a package.json and an app.js file.

The Heroku app builds without errors, but then I just get an "application error"-page on the URL (https://nameless-wave-98692.herokuapp.com/).

As far as I can see, everything looks good in the logs:

-----> Node.js app detected
-----> Creating runtime environment

       NPM_CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=error
       NPM_CONFIG_PRODUCTION=true
       NODE_ENV=production
       NODE_MODULES_CACHE=true
-----> Installing binaries

Do you see any problems? Am I doing something wrong?
