Yarn is a tool created by facebook as an efficient alternative for npm. In your case.. it is just informing that Yarn is not installed in your system. It is not the culprit.

The problem lies in Error occurred during initialization of VM java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object Could not install the app on the device line. It looks like an error with the Java installation.

Solution: Go to C:\Windows\System32 directory and delete java.exe (or rename it to something like java.exe.old)

refer this answer for more details https://stackoverflow.com/a/30577609/5597641.

btw you can install Yarn by typing npm install -g yarn in your command prompt.
