firebase public directory error

Question

I am trying to upload an updated instance of a website to firebase that I pulled from my collaborator's github repo. I am getting the following error after I use command "firebase deploy":

=== Deploying to 'makany-webapp'...

i deploying hosting

Error: Specified public directory does not exist, can't deploy hosting

this is the firebase.json content:

{
  "hosting": {
      "public": "www",
      "ignore": [
        "firebase.json",
        "**/.*",
        "**/node_modules/**"
      ],
      "rewrites": [
        {
          "source": "/public/**",
          "destination": "/public.html"
        },
        {
          "source": "**",
          "destination": "/index.html"
        }
      ]
    }
}

I am trying to deploy from the directory where the firebase.json resides. This same directory contains a "src" folder which contains the index.html file as well as other folder.

current directory and src directory
