Shadcn keeps installing dependencies infinitely in Next.js project

Question

I am asking for support related to a problem with shadcn installation. When I try to run the command npx shadcn-ui@latest init, it keeps installing dependencies and no more results for hours.

System parameters:

Windows 11
Node.js 21.7.3

Can anyone help me with this issue?

@cmgchess Correct. It stays exactly like that for hours. It stops whenever I kill the terminal. — Taulant Bardhi

Installing from my main terminal (instead of vs code's terminal) worked for me.
