Introduction
Some times ago, I published a npx package create-sra
(blog) - a powerful tool for building React applications integrated with webpack.But missed the mark on certain features like TypeScript integration and the flexibility to choose a preferred package manager. Moreover, let's face it, 'create-sra' (sra=>super react app) is kind of a mundane name.
Say hello to create-rp-app(rp=>reactopack).This update isn't just a change in name; it's a leap forward, delivering a refined, feature-rich experience. Now, creating a fast and secure React app is not only seamless but also customizable to your preferences.
In this blog post, I'll walk you through the evolution of create-rp-app, highlighting the reasons behind this transformation, the added functionalities that make it a game-changer, and guide you on effortlessly transitioning from create-sra to the latest and greatest in our npm package lineup.
Why the change
