Phaser 3 Template Setup (no start script)

Phaser 3

Termux
node -v v12.13.0 npm -v
6.14.4
I’m trying to set up a Phaser 3 development environment in Termux with Node.js, npm and the Phaser 3 Template (ES6) but after installing the template ‘npm start’ returned ‘no start script’.
When I installed the template I got a warning about no repository field and a notice about the availability of an npm patch (6.14.5).

cat package.json { "name": "phaser3", "version": "1.0.0", "description": "phaser3.23 testing", "main": "index.js", "scripts": { "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1" }, "keywords": [ "phaser" ], "author": "", "license": "ISC", "dependencies": { "phaser": "^3.23.0" }, "devDependencies": { "phaser3-project-template": "^1.0.9" } } npm -v
6.14.4
$ npm install
npm WARN phaser3@1.0.0 No repository field.

Do npm run to list the scripts.

node_modules
cd phaser3 ls
node_modules package.json
package-lock.json
npm run Lifecycle scripts included in phaser3: test echo "Error: no test specified" && exit 1

Oh, you want to clone the template instead and install from there. Start over:

git clone 'https://github.com/photonstorm/phaser3-project-template.git' phaser3-game;
cd phaser3-game;
npm install;
npm start;

I got it working.
I installed Phaser 3 from NPM with npm i --save-dev
npm audit fix
npm start

I cloned the GitHub phaser3-template-project to my_project directory but when I did npm install from within the template directory I got a big list of files that could not be found:

Etc…

The node modules file is empty.
