npm start unable to find JSON file

I just reinstalled node with the package from their website and cloned an old project. I'm trying to run npm start but i'm getting an error stack.

[email protected] start /Users/username/Code/projects/phase-3/lil-twitter-react-challenge/tweety react-scripts start

sh: react-scripts: command not found

npm ERR! Darwin 16.6.0
npm ERR! argv "/usr/local/bin/node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "start"

npm ERR! You can get information on how to open an issue for this project with:

npm ERR! Or if that isn't available, you can get their info via:
npm ERR!     npm owner ls tweety
npm ERR! There is likely additional logging output above.
npm WARN Local package.json exists, but node_modules missing, did you mean to install?

npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request:
npm ERR!     /Users/username/tweety/npm-debug.log

Inside my package.json file:

{
  "name": "tweety",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "private": true,
  "devDependencies": {
    "react-scripts": "1.0.7"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "react": "^15.5.4",
    "react-dom": "^15.5.4"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "start": "react-scripts start",
    "build": "react-scripts build",
    "test": "react-scripts test --env=jsdom",
    "eject": "react-scripts eject"
  }
}

The files inside my project (tweety) are:

README.md npm-debug.log package.json public src

And this is a folder within a Rails app (trying to parse stuff from a rails app and make components from it and run it in a react app).

Any ideas?

You need to run npm install to install all dependencies prior to start you app.
