Create React Native App Command Not Found Mac

I'm able to install create-react-app and it shows this in the terminal after I've installed it:C:usrlocal`-- create-react-app@1.4.3

Whether you’re using React or another library, Create React App lets you focus on code, not build tools. To create a project called my-app, run this command: npx create-react-app my-app. Easy to Maintain. Updating your build tooling is typically a daunting and time-consuming task. When new versions of Create React App are released, you.

When I try to create a project using the windows terminal, node terminal or Windows Power Shell, I get errors saying that 'react-create-app isn't recognized' or 'command not found'. I've seen similar issues mentioned on github and stackoverflow, but the suggestions for changing the system PATH haven't worked for me:https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/issues/1587https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/issues/3326

  • May 26, 2016  The windows command will do the following. Install react-native-windows from NPM; Read the name of your project from package.json; Use Yeoman to generate the Windows project files.; The react-native-cli plugin architecture searches your local package.json dependencies and devDependencies for modules that match rnpm-plugin-., hence the -save-dev above. Head to GitHub.
  • May 26, 2017  I got the same problem for 'npm install -g create-react-native-app'.I just gave access permission to command by sudo.So I write command like:- 'sudo npm install -g create-react-native-app'.It works for me.

Has anyone else had any luck installing create-react-app on Windows 10? Thanks.

Hiya there! It defo looks like a PATH VARIABLE issue and also npm issue. I'd suggest either uninstall the Node from your machine and get the latest one up and running, OR downgrade your npm to version 4. There is one more way to do this: Find the create-react-app folder in your npm modules folder , and copy the path , and paste it directly in your Advanced Environment Variable Path. Yeah do it manually. That might solve the issue. Post back if you need more help.

Thanks for the quick reply, Ari! I will take a look once I get home from work tonight and let you know if that solved the issue.

React scripts command not found

Ari Misha, unfortunately that didn't work for me yet.

I upgraded to Node.js 8.9.1In System Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables, I searched for the create-react-app path and found this:C:UsersAppDataRoamingnpmnode_modulescreate-react-app and I added that to the User variables and System Variables sections and clicked OK.

Create React App Not Recognized

I navigated to the Node command prompt and typed in:create-react-app search-app

But I still get this error:'create-react-app' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

Before I downgrade to npm to version 4 (I currently have version 5.5.1) , do you notice any issues with what I've done so far? Thank you.

Yeah, there is an issue I noticed, is that you didn't copy the path of the .bat file, instead, you copied the path for the whole module instead. There is an easy fix for it. Get in the folder, and try to find the .bat (batch file) for create-react-app and copy the path for .bat file and paste it in your Advanced Path variable Environment settings. A Batch file is a file that runs in your cmd.exe. Catch my drift?

Create New React Native App

Still no luck (I couldn't find a .bat file anywhere in the create-react folder), but thanks for your help Ari. For now I'm going to get back to doing the other React tutorials, but if I figure out a solution in the future, I'll post it on this page.

In case anyone else runs across this issue, I ended up installing create-react-app on a Windows 10 laptop that didn't have that much software on it, and it installed correctly the first time. I then copied the same value from the PATH to my other Windows machine, and it worked.

System Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables... > User variable section > PathThen I added this to the end of the other Path values:C:Users<mycomputername>.<location>AppDataRoamingnpm
