No response

Describe the Bug

After npm create astro@latest i'm told to run npm run dev. This in tern returns sh: 1: astro: not found. To FIX, I need to run npm install astro?

What's the expected result?

For the webserver to start in dev mode.

Did you install dependencies during the step where it asks if you want to install dependencies?

[technologyconsulting]

I did yes. Admittedly, I've only attempted the installation twice but it has happened both times.

I think I know where the problem is. There's likely an error installing dependencies but it wasn't reported. I'll check against tinylibs/tinyexec#39 first, and if not we have to tweak the behaviour ourselves.
