i used npx create-react-app basic and the react app was created. I then went into the basic folder and tried npm start
but it gave me the following error:
npm start [email protected] start C:\Users\91982\Desktop\html&css\React\basic react-scripts start 'css\React\basic\node_modules\.bin\' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:985 throw err; ^ Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\91982\Desktop\react-scripts\bin\react-scripts.js' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:982:15) at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:864:27) at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (internal/modules/run_main.js:74:12) at internal/main/run_main_module.js:18:47 { code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND', requireStack: [] } npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! errno 1 npm ERR!

I even tried creating the app with npm but it gave me the same error. The start
script is present in the json file. npm is updated to the latest version.

I solved the issue. I had to add C:/Windows/Systen32 to my system variables Path. It started working after that.

I think it is an issue with your Windows PATH environment variable. It is trying to execute something in the local project node_modules directory, but windows cant find it because it is not in the path.
You can try using the npx
command instead of npm
.
npx start
Npx checks the PATH and local project binaries for executable.

It appears you didn't install the dependencies. Run npm i
or npm install
to install the dependencies. It's not finding the react-scripts module because it wasn't installed.
