It's more of an network error you can check the config or try to flush your dns or something. Maybe try some other network if possible

The error is very clear in the message you're receiving:

This is a problem related to network connectivity.
In most cases you are behind a proxy or have bad network settings.

If you are behind a proxy, please make sure that the
'proxy' config is set properly.  See: 'npm help config'

If you're using a VPS, disable it. Try checking your DNS settings, maybe change them to Google's.

Also, try to install anything from NPM to confirm this is an issue with your connection. npm install -g create-react-app. If this (or any other package) succeeds, it may be other issue.

Consider as well it could be an issue with npx on your machine. Try installing it using create-react-app directly instead by first installing it globally (like I showed above)

Try to install npm again using: npm install

Also check what node version you're using: node --v

Then, run the command again: npx create-react-app app_name
