When I began this project I didn't keep anything from the CRA files that are generated, so why do I still get this error, where is it comming from?
GET http://localhost:3000/favicon.ico 500 (Internal Server Error)
As I said, I have created my own ./public/index.html in which I am not specifying a favicon. What is the source of this error and how can I get rid of it?

Browsers automatically request the favicon. If no favicon is specified in the html file an automatic request is made to <protocol>://<domain>/favicon.ico
I added an empty link for favicon and i doesn't work.
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="">
The browser still sees an empty href as a favicon that has not been specified in the html file.
You can set your own favicon url via the href in <link rel="shortcut icon"> and serve an .ico file or just ignore the requests.
At this time I'm not aware of a way to disable the favicon requests entirely.
