I am sure it is probably something simple, but this is all new to me. I am trying to follow the video: 03 Developer How to Edit your Component With a Text Editor.mp4. I am using Nova for the first time, In the video, Dan drags the devpack onto Nova and it opens. If I drag a devpack onto Nova I get an error that says JSON, Error: Failed to install: env: npm: No such file or directory.

I found if I uncheck the JSON under Nova/Extensions, I am all set, and the error goes away.
