Cannot run npm install

[chirrindul]

I've performed these actions:

1. Download from browser "https://github.com/StartBootstrap/startbootstrap-sb-admin-2/archive/gh-pages.zip" but lastly it downloads the file:
   6631182 feb 8 22:05 startbootstrap-sb-admin-2-gh-pages.zip
2. Extract the contents to new folder
   ~/ExpressProjects/startbootstrap-sb-admin-2-gh-pages
3. run npm install. Then there is the following error:

I'm having the exact same problem

I am assuming you are wanting to install the theme itself, right? If so, the issue you are having is because you are not downloading the correct archive. 'gh-pages' is used by github to host pages/docs for a repository. You want https://github.com/StartBootstrap/startbootstrap-sb-admin-2/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
