Start with `creat-react-app`.. webpack and bundler are task runners that bundle your code for production. `creat-react-app` has a bundler program inbuilt. Once you're comfortable with React and you're easily able to communicate between Django and React components, then you might wanna look into improvising your production build for your react code. You should explore external bundlers for your React application after that.

thanks for answer  but I think to build react from  'create-app-react' create a folder with name  'build' and I can't change it and config is hard for work them together

You don't have to create a folder named 'build', `create-react-app` provides you with a separate source and build directory. Once you've your code ready, you just need to run `npm run build` and your source code would be translated into a production-ready code in the build directory. 

You can easily update any default scripts that `create-react-app` provides, such as start, test or build to override the default behavior.

Honestly, just dive into the documents and start getting your hands dirty with coding.

And If you're an advanced developer who understands working with production build, then it won't be a challenging task for you to later explore more configurations or packaging options for your React application.

If you wish to use cache busting, or create-react-app sets that up by default, you can configure some special logic for loading the bundles.

Mine is per-process based, and assumes that since the bundle will be cached, it reasonable not to create a new static file loader:
