First i created folder with uppercase
then i tried to scaffold nextjs app with "." to scaffold in the current directory, it threw "Can't create app with upper case letter because of npm registry issue".
then i did:
note: i didn't deleted the previous old folder with same name

cd ..
npx create-next-app@latest 
name of the project: < same as before but all lowercase >

it scaffolded in the old folder which was having the uppercase letters

Im assuming your using windows?

#

Just delete the folder and re-run the command.

#

Generally windows isnt case sensitive. If you are putting this to report the actual bug, not really the place to do that. You should open an issue on github

#

You also shouldnt create the folder, create-next-app will create the folder.

It’s a side effect of windows not caring about casing.

#

Case insensitive unlock most other operating systems.
