I made an always up to date React Template via /r/reactjs

When you have been working on a project for a long time you usually forget to update the packages you are using. And why if the project works perfectly with the current ones?

This kind of thinking makes updating and renewing the project packages to be forgotten and never done. This is why I made this always up to date React Template which always will have the dependencies updated without making the project fail.

How? I added the renovate bot to check for dependencies updates and also to submit PRs to update them. Also, set up a CI with GitHub Actions to always check that the build passes with the updated dependencies in the PR before merging it with master.

It contains the following technologies:

• 🏗Create React App as the boilerplate.
• 🔥TypeScript for type-safe code and other advantages!
• 👌Prettier to format files.
• ✅Jest for testing.
• 🤖Renovate to check and update packages.
• 👷‍♂️Github Actions for Continuous Integration.

I did not add any styling library to leave that personal option to the user. Although I am planning to add Storybook to it.

You can have a look at it here. Any constructive feedback is welcomed!
