`tsdx create` hangs on Installing npm modules on arm64 Surface Pro X Windows 10

[aprax]

Current Behavior

Attempting to create a new project with the command npx tsdx create --template react-with-storybook myProject results in the script hanging on Installing npm modules and never completing.

In the title of the powershell window, it seems to be hanging on the specific command npm config get init-author-name

Expected behavior

The create command should install the npm modules and terminate.

I had the same issue, however after downgrading to node version 14.19.3, it works just fine.

Current Behaviour Works fine. The create command should install the npm modules and terminate.

Expected behaviour The create command should install the npm modules and terminate.
