Recommended setup for React development (alien.top)

I recently picked up a new project that uses React. Out of the box, my configuration doesn't seem to be doing very well -- indentation is erratic (sometimes thrown off by JSX), no lsp-rename, and generally things are slow.

Are there any generally recommended approaches for React development with Emacs? Language server, minor modes, tree-sitter, etc? There seem to be a lot of options and modes available.

The codebase is currently JavaScript and JSX, but I'm considering Typescript and TSX down the line. Should I just default to the TypeScript tooling?

I use:

Along with something for eslint in flymake

using much of the same combo and I'm happy with it, except I'm using the vtsls LSP.

This is an LSP wrapper around TypeScript extension bundled with VSCode. All features and performance are nearly the same.

it's pretty snappy with (fset #'jsonrpc--log-event #'ignore)

add-node-modules-to-path is broken since npm dropped support for the npm bin command.

That's not great. I bet the project I was using it on is quite old. In the meantime, as stated https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/1865s7b/recommended_setup_for_react_development/kb7kej1/ envrc and layout node seems to work for me!

Looks like adding layout node to .envrc (direnv) would remove the need for add-node-modules-to-path for me
