Lint & Format

Set up linting and formatting for consistent code quality.

ESLint (JavaScript/TypeScript)

Setup (Flat Config - ESLint 9+)

npm init @eslint/config@latest
# or
npm install -D eslint @eslint/js typescript-eslint

// eslint.config.js
import js from "@eslint/js";
import tseslint from "typescript-eslint";

export default [
  js.configs.recommended,
  ...tseslint.configs.recommended,
  {
    rules: {
      "no-unused-vars": "off",
      "@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars": ["error", { argsIgnorePattern: "^_" }],
      "@typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any": "warn",
      "no-console": ["warn", { allow: ["warn", "error"] }],
    },
  },
  {
    ignores: ["dist/", "node_modules/", "*.config.js"],
  },
];

With React

npm install -D eslint-plugin-react eslint-plugin-react-hooks

// eslint.config.js
import react from "eslint-plugin-react";
import reactHooks from "eslint-plugin-react-hooks";

export default [
  // ...base config
  {
    plugins: { react, "react-hooks": reactHooks },
    rules: {
      ...reactHooks.configs.recommended.rules,
      "react/react-in-jsx-scope": "off",
      "react/prop-types": "off",
    },
    settings: {
      react: { version: "detect" },
    },
  },
];

Run

npx eslint .
npx eslint --fix .
npx eslint src/
npx eslint "src/**/*.{ts,tsx}"

Prettier

Setup

npm install -D prettier eslint-config-prettier

// .prettierrc
{
  "semi": true,
  "singleQuote": false,
  "tabWidth": 2,
  "trailingComma": "all",
  "printWidth": 100,
  "arrowParens": "always",
  "endOfLine": "lf"
}

// .prettierignore
dist
node_modules
coverage
*.min.js
pnpm-lock.yaml

ESLint + Prettier

// eslint.config.js
import prettier from "eslint-config-prettier";

export default [
  // ...other configs
  prettier,  // Must be last to override conflicting rules
];

Run

npx prettier --write .
npx prettier --check .
npx prettier --write "src/**/*.{ts,tsx,css,json}"

    "B",    # flake8-bugbear
    "SIM",  # flake8-simplify
    "TCH",  # flake8-type-checking
]
ignore = [
    "E501",  # line too long (handled by formatter)
]

[tool.ruff.lint.isort]
known-first-party = ["myproject"]

[tool.ruff.format]
quote-style = "double"
indent-style = "space"

Run

black --check .

pip install mypy

mypy src/
mypy --strict src/

# pyproject.toml
[tool.mypy]
python_version = "3.12"
strict = true
warn_return_any = true
warn_unused_configs = true

# .editorconfig
root = true

[*]
end_of_line = lf
insert_final_newline = true
trim_trailing_whitespace = true
charset = utf-8

indent_style = space
indent_size = 2

[*.py]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4

[*.md]
trim_trailing_whitespace = false

[Makefile]
indent_style = tab

Pre-commit Integration

# Install
npm install -D husky lint-staged

# Setup husky
npx husky init

# .husky/pre-commit
npx lint-staged

// package.json
{
  "lint-staged": {
    "*.{ts,tsx}": ["eslint --fix", "prettier --write"],
    "*.{json,md,yml}": ["prettier --write"],
    "*.py": ["ruff check --fix", "ruff format"]
  }
}

Python pre-commit
