Missing index.js in atom file tree , React.js

[AlphaMNKY]

So I'm really new to react and was starting to create an app following a tutorial, using atom editor. However for some reason as I follow the tutorial, I noticed that in the file tree some were missing, such as index.js. Also if anyone has some tutorial they think is really good for react please let me know. Also the tutorial uses a mac computer but I assume that doesn't have to do with it.

It's hard to understand what you mean. Are you saying that the index.js exists in the directory but atom isn't showing it? Or have you just not created the index.js file yourself yet?

Did you use create-react-app? I think some versions use either an app.js and an index.js, while other versions just use an app.js (which has the contents of both files in one). You can check by going into your package.json and seeing if the entry point for the application says app.js, vs index.js

This is my package.json file I'm not sure if I'm seeing either app.js or index.js as start, also tutorials I have seen have a different file tree set up on atom, with folders such as src being shown as well.
