This workspace keeps saying Workspace Connection lost. My internet connection is fine.

It keeps happening over and over. There are also a ton of node modules installed in the workspace besides bcrypt. Maybe it is slowing it down too much.

Hey Jordan Kittle, if this keeps happening, it is recommended that you try shutting everything down, wait fifteen minutes, and then try again. And then if the problem persists, reach out to help@teamtreehouse.com with the Workspace number, that's the number at the end of the URL in the address bar. :thumbsup:

Thanks Robert, I noticed it only happened with installing modules via npm resulted in many many modules being installed. Using bcryptjs instead of bcrypt helped. There was one other place where it happened again, and it was again when there were many modules added via the npm install command. This was already covered in the teachers notes and I need to do a better job at making it a point to read and understand those before asking questions! Thank you for your response.
