Check your package.json file. It looks like your app.js and the package.json are not in the same folder. 

{
  "name": "final-project",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "app.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node app.js" // <--- node can't find app.js file
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC"
}

You must change that to:

"scripts": {
    "start": "./views/app.js" // or wherever app.js file is
}
