Answer 1

I suggest you use Vite instead of CRA(create-react-app). These are a few of the following big reasons out of many:

• CRA is no longer updated|maintained by the community. React's official docs don't suggest CRA for new projects anymore. CRA's last release.

• Vite provides hot-module-reload in the dev env while CRA recompiles the complete build. Saving huge dev hours

• Vite uses rollup to bundle the code. Rollup is more efficient than the webpack in optimized bundling.

  npm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react

ENOENT error particularly related to MongoDB.This issue might be occurring because npm is unable to find the specified executable file in the path provided. In addtion make sure MongoDB Path in System Environment Variable.
