I think it's handy for people who have never used a framework before to have all the tooling set up and available immediately. If I've never really worked on a JS project before, it's perverse to wade through docs of a bunch of orthogonal tools just so I can play about with the tool I set out to learn.

Even if you have worked with that framework before, odds are six months have passed since then and the framework has changed 50% of its best practices. Using a tool like this also avoids stale documentation/tutorials.
