Explanation (Please read complete)
I started learning React and I'm an absolute beginner with it, and want to make the practical tutorial in the React page, coding a "tic-tac-toe" application.
But, when creating with:
npx create-react-app tic_tac_toe
Get the following output:
Creating a new React app in /path/to/my/project/tic_tac_toe.
Installing packages. This might take a couple of minutes.
Installing react, react-dom, and react-scripts with cra-template...
added 1393 packages in 1m
Initialized a git repository.
Installing template dependencies using npm...
added 72 packages in 9s
Removing template package using npm...
removed 1 package, and audited 1465 packages in 7s
6 high severity vulnerabilities
To address all issues (including breaking changes), run:
npm audit fix --force
Run `npm audit` for details.
Created git commit.
Success! Created tic_tac_toe at /path/to/my/project/tic_tac_toe
Inside that directory, you can run several commands:
npm start
Starts the development server.
npm run build
Bundles the app into static files for production.
npm test
Starts the test runner.
npm run eject
Removes this tool and copies build dependencies, configuration files
and scripts into the app directory. If you do this, you can’t go back!
We suggest that you begin by typing:
cd tic_tac_toe
npm start
Happy hacking!
Since it gives me this warning:
6 high severity vulnerabilities
To address all issues (including breaking changes), run:
npm audit fix --force
Run `npm audit` for details.
I run the command as instructed and get this output:
npm WARN using --force Recommended protections disabled.

npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: core-js@<3.23.3 is no longer maintained and not recommended for usage due to the number of issues.

Please, upgrade your dependencies to the actual version of core-js.

And an "Audit Report" with tons of logs of packages, where all records follow this structure:
#name of the module and version
#severity
#a link to a "https://github.com/advisories" and a label of a security problem
fix available via `npm audit fix --force`
Will install [email protected], which is a breaking change
#path of the module with the problem
#dependencies
At the end of the report, this conclusion:
72 vulnerabilities (11 low, 20 moderate, 37 high, 4 critical)
To address issues that do not require attention, run:
npm audit fix
To address all issues (including breaking changes), run:
npm audit fix --force
And, obviously, it's just an infinite loop of "npm audit fix --force" where I can't get any solution.
What I Tried
Since "audit fix" didn't work, in my ignorance, tried updating:
sudo npm update
But alway get this 2 errors:
code ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE: Always get it the first time running the update command.
npm ERR! code ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE npm ERR! The "from" argument must be of type string. Received undefined npm ERR!

Any help it's welcome, thanks.
CodePudding user response：
Those "High Severity Vulnerabilities" can be completely ignored for your purposes.
Even for the vast majority of commercial projects, you wouldn't waste your time thinking about them.
Carry on as you were from right after you ran npx create-react-app ...!
