You can ignore this warning. See more about this warning here

this is expected and can be ignored. We can't yet ignore optional packages (in this case canvas)

To disable this message try using:

yarn config set ignore-engines true

Or try use --use-npm --no-optional flags

npx create-react-app first-react-app --use-npm --no-optional

I tried all the solutions offered here, but the best solution was to add both

--ignore-engines --ignore-platform

I'm a Windows 10 user, my yarn version is 1.22.17. Probably it will work also for npm. My problem came from fsevents@2.3.2

So the final cmdlet was:

yarn install --ignore-engines --ignore-platform
