create-react-app

This is just a discourse based on "I need to churn out something, I need that fast and I didn't start in the web game when Backbone and E4X were solid corporate choices". If you are not in a hurry, work in a solid team and have a good attention span, a lot of clickbait idiocy around JS may not happen. It's just that the lone inexperienced guy is one of millions inexperienced guys who are taught the wrong ways everyday. I'm presenting you one of countless examples: a lot of coding bootcamps teach React, maybe with TS, maybe with JS. Enter react-create-app. https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app The docs are a link, while the commands you can copy and paste are laid out at 9th row in the README. That will become a habit for a junior.

What's the connection? Also, take a look at this response from 2021: "Like I said earlier, it was always the intention that we're not going to be able to work on it full-time... [I]t was intentionally designed for this kind of sporadic development. We would get critical fixes out as soon as posible, but overall, starting with 2.0, it's mostly in maintenance mode and does not strive to be the best tool for production React apps. It is a tool to get started and get something running fast. Perhaps, it's not even best at that anymore." https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/discussions/117...
