You are creating react apps all wrong!
The normal way to create a react app was “npx create-react-app <app name>”
But with react introducing its own frameworks this has become unusable.
So the way you create a new react app on your system today is you install the create-react-app globally by using “npm i -g create-react-app”.
Then just use the installed package as a command like this
“create-react-app yourappname”
And its done.
