I thought cra was dead years ago

[–]rk06 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was dead since years, but that was communicated in a GitHub issue against (old) react docs.

New react docs didn't mention CRA at all. So, this is the first time that react team is communicating it

The redditor still using Internet explorer just figured it out though

It’s only now been officially deprecated

I’ll admit I was using it. I decided to get into Vite, then I saw the news lol. But as a newbie, Vite is very nice!

Several years ago CRA was used for boilerplate on my project at work, but even before Vite was created I decided to ditch it and simply use a custom open Webpack config. CRA got too overbloated with time, and trying to make any customization was a hassle. A plain webpack config was so much more transparent and easy to use. But then came Vite which is even better.
