I just changed a new laptop to MacBook air using Catalina. I was successfully installed Node when I tried install Reactjs but it says 'permission denied' to node file as below:

zulfadliazhar@Zulfadlis-MacBook-Air ~ % npm install -g create-react-app

npm WARN checkPermissions Missing write access to /usr/local/lib/node_modules npm ERR! code EACCES npm ERR! syscall access npm ERR! path /usr/local/lib/node_modules npm ERR! errno -13 npm ERR!

zulfadliazhar@Zulfadlis-MacBook-Air ~ % create-react-app --version

zsh: command not found: create-react-app

Please assist me.

Thank you

You need the sudo rights to install something in -g (it means global) because it will install it here => /usr/local/lib/node_modules

so you just need to retry like this sudo npm install -g create-react-app
