npm init creates empty package on Windows

npm init @svelteness/kit-docs mydocs

PS D:\Github\lancer-docs> npm init @svelteness/kit-docs mydocs

[kit-docs]: target directory is empty, creating new SvelteKit app.

PS D:\Github\lancer-docs>

Nothing happens, folder is empty.

Ah this is a Windows specific bug. Tough to debug because I don't have a dev environment on a Windows machine. Best bet would be for you, or someone who has time to do the following and help me debug it:

• git clone git@github.com:svelteness/kit-docs.git
• cd kit-docs
• pnpm i (install PNPM if you don't have it)
• node ./packages/create-kit-docs/bin/create-kit-docs.js test (runs create package locally)

Next steps are more ambigious because we need to walk through the script (again at ./packages/create-kit-docs/bin/create-kit-docs.js) and figure out what's wrong. Probaby start here since it's where it stops.

Test run:

PS D:\Github\lancer> node ./packages/create-kit-docs/bin/create-kit-docs.js test

[kit-docs]: failed to create new app.

Error: spawn npm ENOENT

Node: 17

Fixed it by adding shell: true to spawn

    try {
      const child = spawn('npm', ['init', 'svelte@next', rootDirName ?? '.'], {
        stdio: 'inherit',
        shell: true,
      });
