I'm having a hard time running a react command - reactjs

Question

I just updated my npm and got rid of some useless packages, but for some reason, I still am running into some weirdness when trying to run this command
kalebamarante$ npm init create-react-app kalebcryptoexchange-app
npm ERR! code E404

You are running `create-react-app` 4.0.1, which is behind the latest release (4.0.3).
We no longer support global installation of Create React App.
Please remove any global installs with one of the following commands:
- npm uninstall -g create-react-app
- yarn global remove create-react-app

kalebcryptoexchange-app: create-react-app: command not found

Answer 1

you should try npx instead of npm init.
npx create-react-app kalebcryptoexchange-app.

Answer 2

You should use npx instead of npm.
npx create-react-app your-app
Now why is that?
When you are using npm command it will get the node packages for you. i.e. You may have installed the package called 'create-react-app' globally using npm. Now to execute that package you have to use npx command.
Your error log shows this line,
npm ERR! 404 'create-create-react-app#latest' is not in the npm registry.
because you are trying to fetch a package instead of creating it using create-react-app.
In short, npm downloads the packages, npx execute a package.
