i tried to create react app using the latest documentation , but after i tried running npm create-react-app and npm init react-app
it was demanding to install create-react-app , which is now no longer supported.

Hello @oladips772 !

The npx create-react-app is still supported, you just need to clear your cache so the new version is installed.
Try the following:
npm uninstall -g create-react-app
npx clear-npx-cache
Then you should be able to create your app with npx create-react-app

I had the same issue and this worked. Let me know if this worked for you as well!

This npx clear-npx-cache worked for me, then I was able to do npx create-react-app stable-repo --template typescript without any issues
