npx create-react-app produces react app that will not compile.

Describe the bug

I started a fresh react application at my console by entering npx create-react-app my-app. Then, I changed my directory to my-app and ran the command npm start. When the application loaded in Chrome, it failed to compile...error given in console:

$ npm start
