Just got a raspberry pi 3 Model B. I have no idea what I’m doing. I’ve tried following multiple tutorials and other forms to try and solve various things on my own. At this point I feel completely stuck and have to ask for help. When trying npm start I get an error. I believe I’ve correctly updated NPM and Node but I could be wrong. Like I said, I have no idea what I’m doing so ELI5 please! Thank You :)
