Hey Anna, it's pretty safe to say this project is no longer maintained. It's been years since the last commit.

Can anyone recommend another starter project for Anna?

[AnnaShalaginova]

Thank you! This repo was referenced in this tutorial: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/app-service-web-tutorial-nodejs-mongodb-app

[dalelotts]

That's unfortunate. Please consider a PR or new issue in https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/ to update the docs with something current. Help out the people coming behind you. =)
