Error: "npx tailwindcss init -p" results in "could not determine executable to run" error

Hi,

I’m facing an issue while trying to set up Tailwind CSS in my project using the following command:
npx tailwindcss init -p
Instead of successfully generating the tailwind.config.cjs and postcss.config.cjs files, I get the following error:

npm error could not determine executable to run
npm error A complete log of this run can be found in: C:\Users\n tech\AppData\Local\npm-cache_log

The error occurs instead of the expected config files being generated how to fix this can anyone help
im following the freecodecamp tutorial on how to setup react and tailwindcss

The init command no longer exists in the most recent major version of Tailwind. Consider checking the installation documentation that is most relevant to your project to integrate Tailwind CSS properly.

If you are trying to use v3, ensure the version qualifier is used:

$ npm install -D tailwindcss@3 postcss autoprefixer
$ npx tailwindcss init -p
