I'm trying to push my nodejs, express (backend) and react (font end) with git push heroku master.

What does npm in cd client && npm && npm run build do? Shouldn't it be npm install? — Bhojendra Rauniyar

Since you are executing npm command without passing any argument that is why is failing.

Look at this line "heroku-postbuild": "cd client && npm && npm run build"

And change it to "heroku-postbuild": "cd client && npm install && npm run build"

npm <command> is the correct format of npm commands.

For more details, you can refer the npm doc - https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/npm

Use "heroku-postbuild": "echo Skip builds on Heroku"

This fixed my problem!
