I don't know, because haven't needed to step outside those boundaries. I'm sure it will be painful when that happens, but by that point, I'll have gotten so much done that I probably won't care too much.

I had a gulp build process I used before create-react-app; it was gross to get working, but then worked just fine. I could live without create-react-app, but why would I?

If you hit the point where you're considering ejecting, check out react-app-rewired. If you just need additional Webpack plugins, react-app-rewired can do that for you without the need to completely eject your app.

I've never used create-react-app and I still love React.
