Pug view engine (using NodeJS and express) and firebase hosting not working well when deployed

[DisturbeD]

I'm using Express on NodeJS and I'm hosting my progressive web app using Google's Firebase Cloud. For my view engine I want to use Pug.

If I use the command firebase serve the app runs perfectly fine (runs on localhost) but after I try to use firebase deploy the link gets generated and the app shows up as Internal Server Error so my question is, what am I doing wrong here? I've tried to use npm run build but it gave me an error...

npm ERR! path C:\Users\Ricar\Documents\GitHub\NodeJS\package.json
npm ERR! code ENOENT
npm ERR! errno -4058
npm ERR! syscall open
npm ERR! enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\Users\Ricar\Documents\GitHub\NodeJS\package.json'
npm ERR! enoent This is related to npm not being able to find a file.
npm ERR! enoent

npm ERR!     C:\Users\Ricar\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2020-03-17T01_40_01_746Z-debug.log

Or even inside the functions folder

C:\Users\Ricar\Documents\GitHub\NodeJS\Harmlessly_v3\functions>npm run build
npm ERR! missing script: build
npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:

Any tips would be highly appreciated! Thanks!

It looks like package.json doesn't exist. Did you remember to run npm init and npm --save <your modules here>?
