I would like to know if there's a way to use create-react-app offline rather than have it download files from the internet everytime. Doing this, seems like a huge waste of bandwith, and time, as internet speed is very slow and expensive where i reside.

I found a npm package called create-react-app-offline which initializes the react project offline. And I checked it myself. Here's the link
Create React App Offline Package
Just install it globally and run the crao -n <app_name>

Every-time you do npm i, it also checks for updated packages and updates your package.json . The app can be made offline but your node modules will be downloaded ( they are added to git ignore) if you upload them to git.
If net is really an issue there then I'd suggest getting a pen drive or something where you can upload your files and access them without re-downloading
