Working on my React portfolio project and encountered this message on the terminal. I do have package.json file in my folder. Not sure why it popped out. I have installed yarn and npx [email protected] course2portfolio--->(my project folder name)

Here is the message shown in the terminal on VS code: Claires-MacBook-Pro:course2portfolio ginobili20g$ yarn start yarn run v1.22.10 error Couldn't find a package.json file in "/Users/ginobili20g/Desktop/course2portfolio" info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.
