Create new React + Node example with Vite

[jhgilbert]

As discussed in this issue, I'm working on updating the React + Node example project, since create-react-app is deprecated.

I used Vite's react template and conformed to its defaults. Beyond that, I just tried to stay faithful to the legacy example.

@mfix-stripe asked me to keep the legacy example as create-react-app, so I've moved the older react-nodejs example to that folder, but nothing in that example has changed.

Let me know if you'd prefer a different approach here, or just make edits if that's easier for you. Thank you!

Hi @maxblank-stripe, just following up on this one. Thanks!

[maxblank-stripe]

@jhgilbert great work, thank you! The implementation itself looks good, just left a couple of nits to make the transition from create-react-app easier for existing users

Oh, one more thing, could you run npm install and commit the package-lock.json file as well? node_modules/ folder should be gitignored, but package-lock.json file is intended to be checked into git.

@maxblank-stripe Suggestions accepted, thank you! I set up a basic build script, let me know if you had something else in mind. The legacy create-react-app example still doesn't have a package.lock, because it didn't before (which is why I omitted the file from my new example as well). But I can add one if you like, just let me know. Thanks again!

[maxblank-stripe]

lgtm, thank you!

[jhgilbert]

@maxblank-stripe Thanks for the quick turnaround! I don't seem to have merge permission, would you be the person to merge it or should I ask someone else?

@jhgilbert - we had to bump nodejs version in vercel because the deployment was failing, just merged! Thanks again for your help here!
