Where are the files stored when creating a template via create-react-app?

Question

Node.js

A template created via create-react-app works identically to a self-configured webpack project, package.json, and server. Does it still make sense today to set up webpack from scratch and write a server? And why does the utility store them in node_modules?

Answer 1

You answered your own question "works identically to a self-configured webpack project" so why do it yourself?
