The error returned is very clear

  

Unable to parse package.json

That is, the package.json file is invalid.

See in the scripts attribute, it has the start attribute, its value, and then a comma, remove the comma.

You can always use some tools to validate this. I used JSONLint .

"scripts": {
   "start": "node app.js"
},
