What is jsconfig.json?

Question

JavaScript

Good afternoon, I came across a file (more precisely, a recommendation, use jsconfig.json to specify baseUrl/Path )

All my searches lead to 1 - that this is a file for VS Code, but the rules written there always work, regardless of which environment I run the project in.

What is it, and what is it eaten with?
Create React App apparently takes it into account, but I could not find any information on this matter, please tell me.

1. yes, this is a file for vscode that helps the editor to better understand where you have what.

2. since vscode is extremely popular, its support was added to create-react-app to take some parameters from there and make it easier to configure the build.
