I'm trying to create a React project in WebStorm 2016.3.1
It's asking me for a create-react-app but I have no idea what that is and I can't find any reference on Google.
What is it and where can I find the value?

To create a react app with Webstorm:Choose React App from the left column. Choose a directory name for your project by filling out the Location field. Select npx create-react-app from the dropdown in the create-react-app field.
We consider WebStorm to be the best-paid IDE on the market for React development, thanks to its many features, plugins, and good documentation.
Introduction: React vs React Native? React and React Native are developed by Facebook and have gained a huge fan base in a short time. React is known as ReactJs, which is a JavaScript library to build single-page web applications. Besides, React Native is a React JS-based framework to design mobile apps.
You need to install create-react-app npm module, before you use this feature.
npm install -g create-react-app
You can read more about this feature on the official release blog of WebStorm.
Excerpt from the documentation :
Make sure that you have create-react-app installed globally on your computer, for that run npm install -g create-react-app. Then to start your new project, double click on the start task in the npm tasks tool window to run it. That’s it!

I had ie installed create-react-app globally using yarn and webstorm failed to find it. Then I used npm, not to mention globally and its working like a charm.

TL;DR
No need to install anything. Just enternpx create-react-appin the create-react-app field & it should work like a pycharm, I mean charm :)
Side note: npx is pre-bundled with npm since npm version 5.2.0.
