Can't create react native project. Deprecated istanbul lib hook 1.2.1?

[amberkatyal]

I just recently started learning react-native and i'm facing issues from the beginning.
I installed node via homebrew : brew install node
Then watchman: brew install watchman
And then react-native: npm install -g react-native-cli

Now I tried to create a project: react-native init FCMTest

This is what console said:

[fsevents] Success: "/Users/amberkatyal/Documents/Workspace/React Native/FCMTest/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding/Release/node-v64-darwin-x64/fse.node" already installed

To run your app on iOS:
   cd /Users/amberkatyal/Documents/Workspace/React Native/FCMTest
   react-native run-ios
   - or -
   Open ios/FCMTest.xcodeproj in Xcode
   Hit the Run button
To run your app on Android:
   cd /Users/amberkatyal/Documents/Workspace/React Native/FCMTest
   Have an Android emulator running (quickest way to get started), or a device connected
   react-native run-android

And now when I tried npm audit and npm audit fix it gives more errors:

npm ERR! code EAUDITNOPJSON
npm ERR! audit No package.json found: Cannot audit a project without a package.json

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:

Can anyone suggest how to fix the problem so that I can start doing something with react native?

Was able to solve it by installing yarn package dependency manager. Without it its not working it must be written somewhere that it is mandatory then.
