Steps To Reproduce

1. After running command npx react-native init MyApp --template react-native-template-typescript I get below error in terminal The installer is looking for package react-native-template-react-native-template-typescript which is not available.

1. After removing react-native-template- & running command npx react-native init MyApp --template typescript I get below folder structure which is incorrect. Typescript project is created inside template directory.

IMPORTANT STEP: Remove your globally installed react-native-cli: npm uninstall -g react-native-cli

Then install using npx: npx react-native init app --template react-native-template-typescript
