Today, we’re deprecating Create React App for new apps, and encouraging existing apps to migrate to a framework. We’re also providing docs for when a framework isn’t a good fit for your project, or you prefer to start by building a framework. react.dev/blog/2025/02...

CRA has been dead for some time already. This deprecation is, kind of, a few years late 😉

Yup, I know, but it took quite some time to accept it. I saw multiple discussions around that with always pushback from the React team. I think that's also some sort of tipping point that the React team officially wrote, "yes, you need a framework".

Yep. The worst part however, in my opinion, is that they refuse to maintain any "default" framework whatsoever. Here #angular with its CLI is doing a great job. Imagine how many stupid "which setup to choose" discussions do not take place...

Yup, and how hard it was for them to mention Vite ;) Also intriguing part is now all those arguments „we won’t use Angular but React cause we don’t need framework” 🙂 I’m not trying to say that one is better than the other. But this article triggers some re-evaluation of statements 🙂
