I recently migrated my operating system to Linux Mint Cinnamon Edge. I installed NodeJS and npm normally and the installation worked. However, when I start some projects with npx it doesn’t work and presents different errors. I discovered the error after trying to continue a React-Native application I was running on Windows. ‘npm install’ worked normally, but when I went to test the project ‘npx expo start –clear’ did not work

npx create-expo-app

Error:

node -v

npm -v 
8.5.1

I would like to know if there are any steps that need to be done in Linux so that React applications work normally.
