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?

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