I mimic the same structure in Workspace (copy/paste each file) on my environment (Cloud9) and it's working fine without doing any npm install... Yours should be working... Can you list your steps?....

If you already have npm installed, you can use these commands:

npx create-react-app my-app cd my-app npm start

first command will create the application, then you have to go into that directory, and the last one will start the application and open it on your default browser. Keep in mind that the application created doesn't use JSX. However, you can still follow along easily
