madatdata VS create-react-app

You might like what we're building with Seafowl [0], which is an open-source, single binary database you can deploy to the edge for executing cache-friendly queries (so e.g. you can deploy to fly.io free tier, load your data into it, and put Cloudflare in front of it to cache query results like any other HTTP response).

Here's an example [1] multi-page site with Next.js and Seafowl.

If you're interested, this is the "absolute minimum" React project I was able to create, using `esbuild` (see `dev.mjs`) and some .html files. [0] It's a sub-package in a larger workspace, so there is some complexity inherited from the monorepo in terms of tsconfig.json and dependency management, but you can ignore that; the esbuild part was pleasantly simple to implement, and it pretty much "just works," such that each file in `www` is an entrypoint with one corresponding script from `pages/` that calls `createRoot(container).render()`.

Create React App (CRA) abstracts away the complexity of configuring Webpack, Babel, and other build tools, allowing developers to focus on writing React code. It includes features such as hot module reloading for efficient development.

Immerse yourself in the official Create React App documentation for a deeper understanding.

Create React App (https://create-react-app.dev/)

- And ofc, there are some templates/frameworks that bring something of that together (https://create-react-app.dev/; maybe https://vitejs.dev/) - google for templates.

I recommend finding some friend with modern experience or at least some youtube tutorials or at least some learning course. That would help you to catch up on the best way to bootstrap your first project. Then you can practice.

What's the connection?
