check npm is downloaded or not - npm -v if yes just update npm once-npm install -g npm and then try again.

You should make npm install in the app directory so type cd your path in the terminal and make sure your in the directory of the app.

If you are using Visual Studio code, go to the app directory and right click the folder and select "open with Visual Studio Code", then run in terminal npm start and it should work.

If "open with Visual Studio Code" doesn't show, you need to reinstall it and during the reinstallation there will be 4 checkboxes, check them and install.

I have also got the same error. I renamed the folder, and it worked.

You need to navigate to your app directory to be able to run npm start. seems you are running it out of that directory. type cd "your app path" then npm start

is your package initialised at all? did you run

npm init

or your dependencies and their versions are correct? and the node version too?

Clear everything from the cache and try installing again

npm cache clean
