npx @vkontakte/create-vk-mini-app@latest [app-directory-name] [options]

NPX allows you to always use the latest version of the package without a global installation.

Install the package globally via yarn

yarn global add @vkontakte/create-vk-mini-app

...or npm

npm install --global @vkontakte/create-vk-mini-app

and use as follows

create-vk-mini-app [app-directory-name] [options]

This way is less recommended because you will have to update the package yourself.
