Error, when running: npx create-next-app -e with-tailwindcss my-project

March 27, 2022

when I try to create a new Next.js Tailwind ‘App’ (with this command: npx create-next-app -e with-tailwindcss my-project) I get the following error:

C:\socialmedia3>npx create-next-app -e with-tailwindcss socialmedia3
Creating a new Next.js app in C:\socialmedia3\socialmedia3.

Downloading files for example with-tailwindcss. This might take a moment.

Installing packages. This might take a couple of minutes.

Der Befehl "yarn" ist entweder falsch geschrieben oder
konnte nicht gefunden werden. // This is German and means something like: The command "yarn" is either misspelled or could not be found.
node:events:368
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Error: spawn yarn ENOENT

What am I doing wrong? Best wishes.
