1)Check the name of the project
2)Check the path, must not contain special characters
3)Check the version of nodejs
4)Try to read the logs carefully, and see if there are any leading points to your issue.
5)If none of the above worked, try looking for a YouTube video to walk you through step by step.
6)If you are still learning react native I recommend a Udemy course by Maximilian Schwarzmüller.
If your React Native starter project isn’t installing properly, check Node.js/npm, React Native CLI, Xcode/Android Studio, CocoaPods (for iOS), Watchman (optional), permissions, firewall/proxy settings, and dependencies. Pay attention to error messages for insights.
