create-react-app
is a commandline tool that helps us take care of the configuration of react applications so that we can focus on writing code, rather than configuration. It also takes care of the bundling of JSX and ES6 syntax into ES5 javascript which any browser can support. create-react-app
vastly simplifies the creation and deployment of React applications, and is useful for getting started with React.
