What is the problem?

blitz new does not work when selecting Javascript

Steps to reproduce:

• blitz new BlitzTest
• choose Javascript
• choose Full - includes DB and auth (Recommended)
• pick any form library

Output:

blitz new BlitzTest
✔ Pick a new project's language › JavaScript
✔ Pick your new app template › Full - includes DB and auth (Recommended)
✔ Install dependencies? › npm
✔ Pick a form library (you can switch to something else later if you want) › React Final Form (recommended)
Hang tight while we set up your new Blitz app!

}

Alternative failure path, choose "Minimal — no DB, no auth".

Output:

blitz new BlitzTest2
✔ Pick a new project's language › JavaScript
✔ Pick your new app template › Minimal — no DB, no auth
✔ Install dependencies? › npm
