Hi,
I'm trying to install the create-react-app command line interface (CLI) globally (
-gnpm install -g create-react-app
and I'm getting this error:
Error: EACCES: permission denied, access '/usr/local/lib/node_modules'
Please try running this command again as root/Administrator.
I am the administrator and am wondering how to get permission.
Any help would be great.
Thank you.

sudo is the way you should always issue commands needing admin permissions. It is a little concerning that you are using terminal without knowing how to use sudo. Maybe a basic terminal tutorial will help you to prevent major issues using terminal.

Put “sudo” in front of that command: sudo npm install -g create-react-app
enter password as requested
Thank you! That worked.
Will sudo correct the issue for future use?
terminal permissions
