Yes I did, and no it didn't really help. Sure it was a much slicker starting point, but when I needed to do a bit more (ie. configure a formatter) it just added more obfuscation than anything. The "pre-cooked" part does help with setting up linting, but formatting...you're kind of on your own (if you search the source you can find an example with prettier but you will still need to add your own integration for anything else).
