Environment:

I'm following the tutorial at https://docs.substrate.io/tutorials/v3/create-your-first-substrate-chain/

From inside the repo folder, yarn --version gives the same error as yarn install. However, from any other folder, yarn --version succeeds and gives the version number.

Never mind. I looked at the tutorial more closely and it said you need at least version 14. I got NodeJS from the package manager and it was v10. I got v16 from the Node.js website and now it works.
