Installation instructions #2221

Closed benjamin-lindsey closed 2 years ago

This tutorial did not work for me on Linux. Instead I followed the instructions on the npmjs website for @itwin/desktop-viewer-react. I would recommend adding the npm or yarn command for installation of the @itwin/desktop-viewer-react package before the npx command as that's what made the difference on my system. Not sure if this is an issue for other platforms like Windows.

Could you share the error you saw when you used the npx command?

I recommend uninstalling create-react-app, and reinstalling it again, then trying the npx command again.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app
npm install -g create-react-app

@aruniverse - Just tested your suggestion on a new VM. It worked! And now I can't get it to break again, even after uninstalling all global node packages and creating a new app. I'll take some time later to set up a fresh VM and send you the errors. Many thanks for the help.

Glad that worked, i'm guessing the real issue you saw stems from here, https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/issues/10132#issue-749030789
