Research direction

Start by checking the repository access and fork settings, then inspect package.json, .gitignore, and the existing package-lock.json. Reproduce the local npm failure and compare it with eresolve-report.txt. Done means maintainers resolve the access question, local setup works, and the dependency files have an agreed tracking policy.

Description

OK I'm having several problems here:

  1. Not sure if this is my problem with the setting, but do I have writing access to this repo @kgukevin @yoelcortes ? I made some changes and tried to push, but git refused (and docs here said it could be I didn't have the permission)

  1. Also forking is disabled so I couldn't fork as well. Why would we want this repo to be private?

  2. Additionally, I couldn't run it locally, the error screenshot/log are attached

  1. Why package.json is included in .gitignore? I thought we would want the dependencies info to be up to date, including package-lock.json in .gitignore makes sense because that'll be generated locally when running npm install
    • related, we should probably remove the existing package-lock.json file?

Thanks!
