npm comands not running?

I have cloned this repo and can't start the server or run some of the commands..

for example when I run "npm start" :+1: lesson-mixed-mode-starter-kit@1.0.0 start: `npm run build && serve --compress public/ -p 1618`
npm ERR! Exit status 8
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Failed at the lesson-mixed-mode-starter-kit@1.0.0 start script.
npm ERR! This is most likely a problem with the lesson-mixed-mode-starter-kit package,
