 React JS Installation on Windows

- There are several ways to install React JS. This is the quickest way to get started by using ‘create-react-app’  tool maintained by Facebook.

Note : Extract the file




Step - 2) Navigate to the project directory and Open command prompt 




Step - 3) Enter the following commands
