What exactly is the ‘react-scripts start’ command?

I’ve been working with a React project using create-react-app and I have two options to start the project:

First way:

npm run start with the definition at the package.json like this:

"start": "react-scripts start",

Second way:

npm start

What is the difference between these two commands? And, what is the purpose of the react-scripts start?

I tried to find the definition, but I just found a package with this name. I still don’t know what is the use of this command?
