How to install project using git and grunt - node.js

I have never used grunt but I am trying to install project using github.
They ask me to install assets using grunt. I read documentation on grunt website and have installed the grunt using npm install -g grunt-cli. I have also installed node.js.
I already ran npm install -g grunt-cli bower and it runs without problem but "npm install" fails with many errors.
I would be grateful if somebody can guide me how to install the assets using grunt using a dummy "github project."
Thanks

I am getting this error when I try to run react app with npm?

Getting this error when trying to run the react app with expo,
Tried running npm install expo-cli --global and also has package.json file.
I'd suggest using yarn. it's much better than npm.
I was having a lot of problems with npm as well when I try to run the app or install any packages.

Can't run Angular application with ng serve

enter image description here
Hi.
I can't build and run my Angular application. I tried to reinstall angular/cli, node.js and remove all node modules packages globally but it did not help.
try to do:
npm install
if the error persist you can do
npm install jquery --save
If the error still happens after npm install, try deleting the whole node_modules folder and run npm install again.

Install packages locally with npm

I am new with Node and npm, and when I try to install packages locally, all of the dependencies for that specific package gets installed in the main nodule_modules folder.
It looks like this
LOCALLY
And if I install them globally it looks like this
GLOBALLY
I think I should mention the fact that the folder where I try to install locally is on Desktop.
If you need to install specific dependancies for a project you are working on then do it locally:
npm install <packagename>
If you need something that you can run from the commandline such as grunt or phantomjs (etc..) then install it globally:
npm install -g <packagename>

NPM install grunt#version - No repository field

I'm trying to install grunt since the grunt watch for example is not working, shows as error: grunt command not found. When I do npm install grunt#0.4.1 --save-dev this is what appears:
And does not let me install it. I tried doing another package.json, doing a clean npm install and still, no idea what's going on.
Can anyone help me please, how can I solve this problem?
It seems that you need to install the Grunt CLI globally:
npm install -g grunt-cli
With this in place you should be able to setup grunt for any new project.

installing grunt locally as under privileged user

I'm using node/grunt for deploying to a shared hosting server.
I have node installed in $HOME/opt/node
I don't know where npm install -g grunt is going to install it to, or how to tell npm to install global files to $HOME/some/path.
I ran npm install grunt -g and it seemed to work, but I cannot find the grunt binary anywhere.
If you want the grunt command in your server's shell, you'll need to install the Grunt CLI.
npm install grunt-cli -g
Global modules are located here:
/usr/local/lib/node_modules
