Error creating project: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory

See original GitHub issue

On executing, I get an error:

$ npx create-react-app test-app --scripts-version rmw-react-scripts
...
Success! Created test-app at /Users/adnaan/code/js/test-app
Inside that directory, you can run several commands:

  yarn start
    Starts the development server.

  yarn build
    Bundles the app into static files for production.

  yarn test
    Starts the test runner.

  yarn eject
    Removes this tool and copies build dependencies, configuration files
    and scripts into the app directory. If you do this, you can’t go back!

We suggest that you begin by typing:

  cd test-app
  yarn start

Happy hacking!

I was able to get it to work with the following steps.

npx create-react-app test-app --scripts-version rmw-react-scripts

cd test-app

npm install -g node-pre-gyp

npm i

npm start

The node-pre-gyp was tripping me up. I didn’t have this globally installed.
