Create your React app using create-react-app my-app or use an CRA app

Rewire it

1) Install react-app-rewired + react-app-rewire-eslint

npm install react-app-rewired react-app-rewire-eslint --save

2) Create a config-overrides.js file in the root directory

const rewireEslint = require('react-app-rewire-eslint');
 
/* config-overrides.js */
module.exports = function override(config, env) {
  config = rewireEslint(config, env);
  return config;
}

3) Create your own .eslintrc in the root directory
