Add FAQ what this makes different (better) than create-react-app about neutrino HOT 5 CLOSED

The difference between Neutrino and CRA is Neutrino is more customizable.

"create-react-app" has a "react-scripts" package (like Neutrino) that bundle everything (configs) in it, the only way to custom it is by "eject" it. After you eject, everything goes back to the old time. (sometimes you just want to add a entry point to the webpack config).

Neutrino provided a much flexible way to custom it, and most importantly, your customization can be shared between different projects(called preset).

Webpack has a rich set of functionality, but I can't think of many cases where that belongs in your app(s). I think of these projects as boilerplate done right, just abstractions like anything else in programming but done without the code generation / manual maintenance part when something is updated or can be safely removed due to browser support.

I had a short blurb on the presets page: https://neutrino.js.org/presets/#why-not-a-boilerplate-or-alternative

It's not very prominent, but maybe a more prominent FAQs page would help some.

@kebot Yor explanation is pretty good (and also makes clear what are the USPs of neutrino, also good description of the pain points of CRA). Thx!
