Current Behavior

I have Followed the view.py installation instructions from https://view.zintensity.dev/getting-started/installation/ and the installation worked correctly. However project/app creation via View CLI throws 'File Not Found error'

(venv) PS E:\2024\day_24> python -m view init Project name [my_app]: new_app Loader strategy (manual, filesystem, simple) [simple]: simple Create repository? [Y/n]: Y Create virtual environment? [Y/n]: Y

Expected Behavior

Installation of new View.py app with necessary starter files

Steps To Reproduce

1. Follow the Installation instructions of View.py as described in https://view.zintensity.dev/getting-started/installation/
2. Once installed, proceed to Project Creation via View CLI https://view.zintensity.dev/getting-started/creating_a_project/
3. Observe the Terminal for Error message

Anything else
