A command line tool to create a minimal react web application.

Minimal React is a tool just like Create React App but just simpler and with more control over your package.json and webpack configuration files.

• It is a boilerplate to create a simple React application setup.
• It is quick and smaller in size compared to Create React App.
• It is a starter kit that builds you a minimal React app with bare minimum configuration that just works.
