The problem lies in what you actually want to create. For your simple html,css websites with gifs please don't use React with Typescript!
But if you are writing an application, something which is supposed to replace desktop software, and allow for storing data in a database, retrieve it quickly, manage some sort of complicated systems then I'm sorry Html + css is not good enough. Use the tools you need, don't pick react for landing pages.
