I’m trying to get started with react & typescript . After creating an empty folder in vscode then I create a TypeScript app with npx create-react-app react-script-demo --template typescript
the installating completed . but after running npm start
. I got theese errors :
‘typescriptreact-script-demonode_modules.bin’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:936
throw err;
^Error: Cannot find module ‘C:*******react-scriptsbinreact-scripts.js’

this error has nothing to do with the installation. I figured out that the error is coming from the name of the parent folder containing an &
(Ampersand)
. renaming this folder with no & symbol solved the problemYou have to run
npm install
within the repo’s directory first.
