Hello and welcome to the community.

Please post more info, ie system info, version of processing. The less info we have the less we can help.

I was trying to contribute to : p5.js-web-editor

Sys : Acer Nitro 5 Ryzen [8Gb Ram, Graphic: AMD RX560X 4GB]  
  &nbsp;Google Chrome [Version 79.0.3945.88 (Official Build) (64-bit)]

I have gone through installation guide, and did the same. I also made sure mongoDB is running.

I used redux dev tool and found that data “Sketches” is empty which i think is causing error.

What is it you are trying to do exactly, I’m unfamiliar with how to contribute to p5.js-web-editor, so have no idea what the requirements are.

You can start with the [developer docs](https://github.com/processing/p5.js-web-editor/tree/master/developer_docs) especially if you have issue with building the project.
