npx will download the package create-react-app, run it once, then delete it from your disk. If you already have the package installed via npm install -g create-react-app, you can simply run create-react-app in your terminal.
It is recommended to use npx, because it doesn't clog up your filesystem, and because it will always us a package's latest version.
You can learn more from it on the official documentation.
