This is not an error. Your tar is outdated. To fix this issue run this command :- npm i tar and enter ok. Now your problem of npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: This version of tar is no longer supported, and will not receive security updates. will be fixed.

Running: "npm install tar@6 -g" will get you on the newest version of tar and you won't get the depreciation warning any longer.

Currently, as of me writing this, 6.1.11 is the newest version of tar available: https://www.npmjs.com/package/tar

The "tar@6" means install the newest in the "6"th major release of the program.

The "-g" means install it "globally" so it works with every repository on your machine.

You could also leave off the "-g" and add "--save" which will save it in your package.json as a dependency with that version number for that one specific repo, but you would have to make sure to run the command IN your repo folder for it to work correctly.

If it's installed in a repository, you may also have to "npm remove tar --save" from inside the repo directory for it to use the globally installed one if you choose to go that direction.

Note: THIS IS NOT YOUR POST, STOP TRYING TO EDIT IT. I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE INDIAN AND CAN'T MAKE A POST WORTH ANYTHING YOURSELF. GO AWAY.

I will advise you install NPM using below command

sudo apt install npm

then after installing the node and npm, to create an app, the following command is needed to download the necessary dependencies your app need to run. Such as: React, ReactDom etc.

npx create-react-app my-app

you can change the my-app to any name you want then use the below command to run the app

cd my-app
npm start
