What is this project?

DAV (Decentralized Autonomous Vehicles) is a new foundation working to build an open-source infrastructure for autonomous vehicles (cars, drones, trucks, robots, and all the service providers around them) to communicate and transact with each other over blockchain.

As an organization that believes in building a large community of open-source contributors, we often create issues like this one to help people take their first few steps into the world of open source.

Mission Control

The DAV project you are looking at is Mission Control. It is the brain in charge of orchestrating missions between DAV users and autonomous vehicles.

How you can help

Background

To help developers building on top of DAV technologies, Mission Control can start in a simulation environment. In a simulation environment, there are always a few simulated drones flying around the user, ready to take on missions. This makes it easy for developers to start building and testing without investing in hardware.

The Issue

Up on doing npm install npm throws a warning saying npm WARN missioncontrol@0.0.1 No repository field. Basically, a repository field is missing in the project's package.json file.

Your task for this issue is to add the repository field in the package.json file. You can find the example of the respository tag in in the other repo's (missions) package.json
