Answer 1

Remove the legacy react-native-cli

npm uninstall -g react-native-cli

Install new one from "react-native-community":

npm i -g @react-native-community/cli

after that, init the Project with:

npx react-native init MyApp --template react-native-template-typescript

Answer 2

Resolved: i had to remove react native cli using yarn too

yarn remove global react-native-cli

Answer 3

This will also help, --ignore-existing

npx --ignore-existing react-native init MyApp --template react-native-template-typescript

Answer 4

Best solution I found

Remove

npm uninstall -g react-native-cli

Create the folder where the project will be

mkdir [folder name] && cd [folder name]

Install the dependencies and everything will work

yarn init
yarn add react-native
yarn react-native init [Project Name] ...
