  • There is no real recommended practice for this. If you feel the need to override your configurations, then do it. Otherwise, there's no reason to do so.

  • There will be no harmful effects from ejecting. Your build is simply going from being wrapped in a single dependency to its actual component parts.

  • Usually you would run eject when you want to override something in the configuration. For example if you want to use your copy-webpack-plugin. Or want to use custom aliases. Or any other plugin/function/tweak to your configurations

You don't need eject your application.

See this lib: https://github.com/timarney/react-app-rewired

Override create-react-app webpack configs without ejecting

You will need to eject when you work in a very specific way.

Today, we have any ways to work without eject your application :)
