Answer 1

From Contributing.md in create-react-app:

The scripts in tasks folder and other scripts in package.json will not work in Windows out of the box. However, using Bash on windows makes it easier to use those scripts without any workarounds.

so, the easier way is to just install Bash and npm install there. the steps are:

Install Bash on Ubuntu on Windows

A good step by step guide can be found here

Install Node.js and yarn

Even if you have node and yarn installed on your windows, it would not be accessible from the bash shell. You would have to install it again. Installing via nvm is recommended.

Line endings

By default git would use CRLF line endings which would cause the scripts to fail. You can change it for this repo only by setting autocrlf to false by running git config core.autocrlf false. You can also enable it for all your repos by using the --global flag if you wish to do so.
