You can now use the new CLI to create a project 🎉 : npx react-native init MyApp --template react-native-template-typescript@next

Thanks for creating the issue and raising awareness about the new CLI changes. Luckily it seems like it can be fixed easily by creating a template config file and changing the folder structure. As this will break the process in the current CLI, I’ll do that in a separate branch and release a pre-release version.
