I have an empty new project, when i run npm init i got a list of questions to answer, for example:

name: (karma)

version: (1.0.0)

description:my project description

entry point: (index.js)

I am really confused about the one that says entry point, Should this be my index.html file or my app.js or is it something else?

Quoting from this blog post:

Entry point is the javascript file that will be invoked when consumers
of your module “require” it, this file will include the main logic for
your module, or if it is a large module you can export public
functions found with other files (typically in the lib directory)

So it should be your app.js file.
