🔖 Feature description

When installing a clean instance of backstage and adding plugins, I want to encounter a clean installation without a wall of warnings in my console.

🎤 Context

There are numerous warnings that are quite worrying, e.g. React versions not matching with the versions required by core plugins or React 18 not being compatible with MUI v4. I assume the Backstage development team has ruled out that these incompatibilities are causing essential bugs. Nevertheless an output of lots of lines of warnings distract the user from actually spotting warnings that matter and should be taken seriously.

✌️ Possible Implementation

Resolve these warnings. E.g. adding react-dom and react-router-dom to the peerDependencies of a plugin created by the cli already removes several lines of warnings.
