[SOLVED] When I try to run npm create vite@latest my-react-js-app -- --template react -y it says: npm warn Unknown cli config "--template"

When I try to run npm create vite@latest my-react-js-app -- --template react -y it says: npm warn Unknown cli config "--template"

I'm trying to create a new React app using Vite with the following command from Vite official site:

npm create vite@latest my-react-js-app -- --template react -y

However, I get this warning:

npm WARN Unknown cli config "--template"

The command does not execute as expected. How can I fix this issue?

System details:

Node.js version: v22.14.0
NPM version: v11.2.0
OS: Windows 10 Pro

I also tried running:

npm create vite@latest my-react-js-app --template react

but the issue persists.

How can I resolve this and properly create a Vite React project in a single command without being prompted to select the framework (vanilla, Vue, React, etc.) and the variant (JavaScript or TypeScript) I want to use for my app?

Solution

Ok, i found the way to do that. using the following command:

npx create-vite@latest my-app-name --template react
