yarn add v1.22.4 info No lockfile found. warning package-lock.json found. Your project contains lock files generated by tools other than Yarn. It is advised not to mix package managers in order to avoid resolution inconsistencies caused by unsynchronized lock files.

Solution
Your command yarn add create-react-app is not a valid one
follow the official documentation for creating your react app : https://create-react-app.dev/docs/getting-started
example if you alreay have node & yarn installed you need to run
yarn create react-app <yourappnamehere> (note that there is no - between create and react-app)
You can also create your app using npx like : npx create-react-app <yourappnamehere>
