Not able to run the extension in the local server

Hi team,

Encountering an issue while developing a Zoho Desk extension. After enabling Developer mode, I'm unable to load the extension locally, and the error message reads: "Unable to load your extension. Please check your plugin-manifest or Resources.json."

Seeking quick assistance to resolve this matter. Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I am confused with all the related articles/informations in the net. Could someone please outline the process to do it, just thinking about me as a novice with limited knowledge or experience. A couple of questions from the knowledge gained. 1. I believe we have to delete the yandex current MX from the website records and add Zoho MX.
