I am trying to create a React-native application environment using
create-react-native-app confusion
but it is not creating all the files. It is only creating package.json and yarn.lock inside the confusion folder, App.js is missing and I am getting the below mentioned error.

PS E:\Developer's Area\ReactNative-Projects>
This is how I set up my app
yarn global add create-react-native-app@1.0.0
create-react-native-app confusion
yarn start
create-react-native-app@1.0.0 is not supported anymore, that version was released 4 years ago and the latest version is 3.5.3. you can leave out the version to get the latest - yarn global add create-react-native-app or use yarn create react-native-app or npx create-react-native-app.
also, if you're looking to create a managed expo project, i'd suggest installing expo-cli instead - npm i -g expo-cli and then run expo init. full installation docs here.
