Create React App is in a strange, pseudo-death state.

- It is not listed as an option for starting a new project in the React docs[0].

- The last release was April 12, 2022.

- The last time I created a new project with CRA, it printed a console log that claimed CRA was deprecated. However, the message seemed to originate from a dependency rather than CRA itself.

All this was enough to convince me to move to Next.js for future projects; though I find Next.js overcomplicated and full of things I will never use.
