Hi everyone,
I’m trying to follow this guide: https://diyodemag.com/projects/part_one_i_spy_with_my_little_pi
and am having problem trying to get this command (node index.js) to run successfully.I’m getting this error:

Error: Cannot find module 'express'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:555:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:482:25)
    at Module.require (module.js:604:17)
    at require (internal/module.js:11:18)
    at Object.<anonymous> (/home/pi/slackcam/slackcam/index.js:1:82)

    at Module.load (module.js:573:32)
    at tryModuleLoad (module.js:513:12)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:505:3)

I’m new to java script and iot connected devices so If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Vincent

You are missing the module express.js, and need to install it with npm. Refer to the express website.
