Extending `react-app` eslint config in non-typescript app

Created by: thisismydesign

Describe the bug

I'm trying the DISABLE_ESLINT_PLUGIN flag added to react-scripts in v4.0.2. In .eslintrc.js:

  extends: [
    "react-app",
  ]

This gives me

$ eslint .

Oops! Something went wrong! :(

ESLint: 7.19.0

Error: Failed to load parser '@typescript-eslint/parser' declared in '.eslintrc.js » eslint-config-react-app#overrides[0]': Cannot find module 'typescript'

I'm on a non-typescript project. Do I still have to configure it as if it was a typescript project if I want to use the react-app ruleset? This is what the readme of https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-config-react-app indicates as well, but it would be great to be able to use it without all of these dependencies. Especially when using create-react-app.
