Ask HN: Is create-react-app no longer maintained?

I was just scanning the repo for create-react-app and see the main branch hasn't been commit to since the beginning of September.

Does anyone have any insight if the project is no longer being maintained?

It's been only loosely maintained over the last couple years. Also, despite the `facebook` org, as far as I know the last couple maintainers were not actually Facebook employees.

See this discussion thread from a couple years ago:

Thanks for the link.

Interesting, thanks for sharing. I just read through it.

Facebook fired a lot of people lately. Just saying...

Indeed, I figured it was something related.

Vite is a great alternative

I just started using it last night and came up with the same conclusion.
