vue create projectname

npm run serve

What is expected?

A running project

What is actually happening?

Getting error message:
npm ERR! missing script: serve

vue has only created 3 files after vue create projectname: package.json, package-lock.json, README.md

If I try to create the project with vue ui, the same files are being created but a different error message in the browser:
