2.1.2.3 Facebook’s Create React App

Facebook released a tool to create React Apps with no need for configurations or boilerplates. If you’re just begining to learn React, you might want to use create-react-app instead of using this boilerplate project. Behind the scenes, create-react-app uses Webpack and Babel.

You might still want to use this boilerplate if you want to see how Webpack and Babel can be manually configured in a project.
