NPM Nodejs error:

To solve…

TypeError [ERR_UNKNOWN_FILE_EXTENSION]: Unknown file extension ".json" for /home/ntala/Documents/js es6/node_modules/an-array-of-english-words/index.json

just add –experimental-json-modules to the execution. In this case:

"scripts": {
"build": "node ntala.js",
//--
"start": "node --experimental-json-modules ntala.js"
},
