Can't install expo-cli, hangs on installing @expo/traveling-fastlane-linux@1.9.9

Expo Development Tools

I’m trying to install expo-cli so I can complete a React tutorial Introduction · React Native, but when I do so using npm install -g expo-cli, the installer hangs:

[ …] \ extract:@expo/traveling-fastlane-linux: sill extract @expo/traveling-fastlane-linux@1.9.9 extracted to C:\Users\edkol\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules.staging@expo\traveling-fastlane-linux-db114743 (362890ms)

This is the last message I get from the installer; then it just hangs and I’ve let it run over 15 minutes to no avail. How can I complete the installation of expo-cli so I can use React?

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Perhaps downloading the package failed and the local npm cache is now corrupt somehow? Can you try running npm cache verify and then install again?
