    This issue could be due to a slow internet connection. Timeout is set to 30000 ms which is 30 seconds by default. Try increasing the timeout to 60 seconds instead by adding this to to create-react-app.

    npx create-react-app <app name> -timeout=60000
    

    This will set the timeout to 60 seconds which will provide enough time to ge the required resources from npm registry for new react app.

    @JayDevelops answer did not help me. I have killer 1gb bandwidth and its currently downloading close to that and uploads are fast too.

    Any other ideas for this problem?
    Thanks.

    as @Jayesh said the issue is probably in slow internet connection and i tried his his solution it didn't worked for me, but i remembered that i know the internet in the middle east is the worst that's why you should increase the timeout i sugget to try npx create-react-app <app name> -timeout=120000 or more it depends on how your internet is worse, try to increase the timeout more if it didn't work hope it work for you guys
