folder, package.json
and package-lock.json
. when i run npm install
it says "up to date, audited 1 package in 513ms
found 0 vulnerabilities" and there is no node_modules
was installed.
package.json

{}
package-lock.json
is { "name": "client", "lockfileVersion": 2, "requires": true, "packages": {} }

Since you removed the package.json
file, NodeJS assumes you are initializing a new project and create an empty package.json
for you. Obviously, it won't install any packages for you because you didn't specify any in the first place.
