When I create a react app on Windows with node 15 like this:

It fails with

I don't want to install compilers. Are there binaries available for downloading?

Unfortunately, the deasync node package might not contain every binary for your node version and operating system, and yarn for some inexplicable reason requires it when running create react-app while npx doesn't.

Your options are:

  1. Figure out how to download the prebuilt binaries into your system

https://github.com/abbr/deasync-bin

  1. use npx
npx create react-app my-project --template typescript
  1. use yarn 2. This is the method I prefer as it consumes less disk space
yarn set version berry
yarn create react-app myproject --template typescript
