Hello @angelabenavente, thanks for fixing this issue! 👍
I have tested the updated command on macOS and Windows, also getCurrentVersion function is currently used only to inject version in template commands, so it should be safe to modify code at the helper level.

Fixes #5173
The CLI looks up npm templates by exact version. Docs used the Docusaurus label (
0.86/0.87), soinit --version 0.86failed.getCurrentVersion()now returns a patch (0.87.0).Appending
.0in the snippet made Prism (bash) treat0.87as a number and.0as another token, so the version was two colors (screenshot of Highlight). The value is quoted (--version "0.87.0") so it highlights as one string. The CLI accepts that the same way.Screenshots
