1. We used the --template typescript option on the create-react-app command to create a React app with a TypeScript project.
2. We could use the no-console rule to prevent console.log statements being added to our code.
3. We can use the "singleQuote": true setting in .prettierrc to use single quotes in our code. 
4. The Eslint: Probe setting in Visual Studio Code tells the ESLint extension to check React and TypeScript code if it contains typescript and typescriptreact.
5. Default Formatter must be set to esbenp.prettier-vscode and Format on Save must be ticked for Prettier to automatically format the code when it's saved.
