Add .editorconfig file

Is this a bug report?

No

Is it possible to add an .editorconfig file while scaffolding the project?

[viankakrisna]

you can fork CRA and publish it if you want to customize the experience. in your case the code would be in packages/react-scripts/scripts/init.js

Just add it yourself? It takes two seconds and doesn't conflict with anything. Many people don't use editorconfig, and I imagine that number is getting even lower with the rise of prettier.

Yeah, I think it's pretty easy to add by hand and we don't want to make decisions like this for our users.

Shouldn't it work the other way round? Meaning, CRA should respect existing .editorconfig
