Solution1:

yarn global add serve

Based on NPM - Doc, you can install it globally yarn global add serve, then use it as you want like serve -s build

Solution2: npx:

npx serve -s build

As this article says, npx will check whether <command> or <package> exists in $PATH, or in the local project binaries(node_modules), and if so it will execute it, and if it's not there, it will download it. You can also run packages from github enter image description here

Check your admin permissions, so it can install globally with the -g flag
