It also adds a default plop-templates folder, a plopfile.js. - Add .env: Adds an .env file to the project. Soon this file will be editable through UI. - Rewire: Installs react-app-rewired and adds a default config-overrides.js file

Note: plugins will be separated from the repo soon so anyone can publish their own plugin
