Impossible to push to Heroku - Push rejected, failed to compile Node.js app

Question

I don't know why but it's impossible to push on Heroku. I don't found the error :/. Thanks for the help ^^.

It's an express application with React client (use compass)

BuildPack -> https://github.com/stephanmelzer/heroku-buildpack-nodejs-grunt-compass.git

       Skipping because npm 5.6.0 sometimes fails when running 'npm prune' due to a known issue

       You can silence this warning by updating to at least npm 5.7.1 in your package.json

You'll have to add the npm dependencies folder (node_modules) in .gitignore

Please follow the below steps for pushing data to heroku.

heroku create "app name"
heroku git:clone -a "created app name"
heroku git:remote -a "app name"
git add .
git commit -am "Initial commit"
git pull heroku master
git push heroku master

Inside package.json add

"scripts": {
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
"start": "node app.js"
