Same with yarn and node v14.15.4

That's because the installation scripts tries to use Strapi v4, which was released just a few days ago, but this starter template is not yet compatible with it. You can run npx create-strapi-starter@3 my-project next-ecommerce The command will install starter template with Strapi v3 base. Also, you should probably use Node v14 LTS for Strapi projects since it's officially supported and v16 is not.

@burdulixda Can this information be listed in the documentation?

Sure.

What will I have to update to use Strapi v4? After the template is installed will I just have to update Strapi to v4 or will the upgrade path be more complicated?

Two months later you still have this issue, I mean, this is your calling card, great. I certainly NOT try your product if this is the support I'll get

[aaegorof]

Still have the same error on both yarn and npx

took me a while, to get here. Installation still does not work with npx create-strapi-starter@3 my-project https://github.com/strapi/strapi-starter-next-ecommerce nor yarn for both Quickstart nor Custom option

Not sure why this is closed. As of March 26, 2022 the install still does not work.

Same here. I'd love for someone to look into this.
