Issues setting up a new React project with create-react-app

Question

When you try to run the command npx create-react-app and proceed to install the dependencies with npm it returns an error code

ERESOLVE Unable to resolve dependency tree as it generates the package.json
with React version 19 but @testing-library/[email protected] is compatible
exclusively with React 18.

....*ahem. You might want to pick something else...

Create React App command is deprecated

Alternatively, you can use Vite. Simply run npm create vite@latest in your terminal and select your desired React configuration.

Use "npm install --legacy-peer-deps" in the terminal.
