I clicked in the link in the teacher's note and it tool me to the website where there is a prompt command line to install the software, but when I paste it in my command line nothing happens. Is there another way to install it or could you show/tell me how?

The Windows alternatives are:
Chocolatey Npackd Scoop OneGet for Windows 10

Courses Plus Student 136 PointsSeth Kroger there's zero instructions on getting the code running on Windows! So I install Create React Native App, but then what?? What files do we copy over from the project folder downloaded for this course? The quiz at the end of the first section of this course is titled 'Create React Native App Review'... but the videos make no mention of Create React Native App! I've spent the past 2 hours trying to work out how to get this running.
