I can't install react using npx create-react-app?

Solution 1:

To fix the issue, run these commands in sequence

npm init
npm install create-react-app
npx create-react-app myapp

Solution 2:

I had the same issue "Install for create-react-app@latest failed with code 7" Use this. It worked for me.

npm install -g create-react-app    
npx create-react-app my-app     
cd my-app      
npm start

Solution 3:

Clean npm cache:

npm cache clean --force

then try again

Solution 4:

First, clear cache by typing this in your terminal:

npm cache clean --force

Then upgrade your version of npm by either following these steps or type:

npm install -g npm@next

Now go to "NodeJS" in Programs and Features in your Windows settings and Repair your installation.

Restart terminal and type:

npx create-react-app my-app

This should hopefully fix your issue.

Solution 5:

I had the same problem in creating react project when I used commands from official source https://reactjs.org/docs/create-a-new-react-app.html#create-react-app

npx create-react-app my-app
cd my-app
npm start

The above commands din't work on my windows. I have Node >= 6 and npm >= 5.2 on my machine even then it is not able to open localhost:3000 then I used this commands

npm install -g create-react-app
create-react-app my-app-name
cd my-app-name
npm start

It worked perfectly fine. I learned from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCgDRgmfilE
