Hi when I'm installing solc.js for the dependencies in my terminal which is linux i'm getting a warning, however it finishes the installation process smoothly but I'm unable to find the (package.json and yarn.lock) in my main folder.

This is what it says when I run the code : yarn add solc

yarn add v1.22.15
warning package.json: No license field
warning package-lock.json found. Your project contains lock files generated by tools other than Yarn. It is advised not to mix package managers in order to avoid resolution inconsistencies caused by unsynchronized lock files. To clear this warning, remove package-lock.json.

Hey @mahendrabhishekmishra if you can't find these two files in your folder, chnaces are, they are being initiallized in a different folder. Try and search for them in your file system and move them to your working directory.
If you still can't find them, the easiest way i'd suggest is to create a new folder, and run yarn init --yes first before installing the packages

@mahendrabhishekmishra First make sure you are at the right location where you run the command in the terminal. And the second thing, your folder contains a package-lock.json file that is an npm dependency manager file and you are using yarn that will generate the yarn.lock file, so do not mix both either use npm or yarn. If you want to use yarn then delete the package-lock.json file and for a fresh start delete also yarn.lock and node_modulesfolder and run again yarn install
