I am trying to create react app with npx and get the following error: error fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin@1.5.0: The engine "yarn" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=1.0.0".
Any ideas what could be the source of the issue? any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!

Answer
Look at this line in the log error fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin@1.5.0: The engine "yarn" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=1.0.0". It says your yarn version is not compatible. You have yarn v0.16.1 but it has to be above 1.0.0. Please try to update your yarn version.
