changed-files VS stylelint

We need to add two additional steps. The first one is to retrieve all new files, and the second one is to run the enhanced config only on the new files. In this example the third-party GitHub Action called changed-files is used to obtain the new files. In the GitHub Marketplace for Actions, there is a considerable number of similar actions with similar functionality. You can choose the one that suits you best, as the functionality is more or less the same for all of them.

I determined this after dozens of attempts working with the other GitHub Action, tj-actions/changed-files which feeds a list of modified files to clang-format-lint.

GitHub actions has actions that do similar, I’ve used this one before with great success: https://github.com/tj-actions/changed-files

You could also clean up your changed files job by using this (https://github.com/tj-actions/changed-files) or something similar. That would at least make it easier to understand what it's supposed to be doing. You can use it to get the directories containing any changed package.json files. Then use that output as as a matrix input.

There are more linting tools that I won't go into deeply, but you can integrate them with lint-staged. For example, you can lint your CSS content with Stylelint, or even lint your README files with markdownlint, etc.

Another common way to extend configs in linters is using the extends key in the configuration file. Let's take StyleLint as an example:

Stylelint is similar to ESLint, but its focus is on styling rather than JavaScript. It helps you find errors in style files, such as old syntax or empty classes. We will also incorporate stylelint-config-clean-order to sort your style rules and group them consistently across the entire codebase.

The “cost of loading modules” diagram shows non-linear behaviour (though you should largely ignore the curve visible in the diagram because the x axis is way off linear):

• 0.15s ÷ 500 = 0.3ms

• 0.31s ÷ 1000 = 0.31ms

• 3.12s ÷ 10000 = 0.312ms

• 16.81s ÷ 25000 = 0.6724ms

• 48.44s ÷ 50000 = 0.9688ms

My own observation on a Surface Book six years ago was that in Node.js under Windows, each module had about 1ms of overhead when there was warm file system cache—that is, simply bundling with Rollup saved 1ms per file. If this sort of thing interests you, quite a lot of useful stuff came out of https://github.com/stylelint/stylelint/issues/2454 which I filed because I was unhappy with stylelint taking over a second to import. And that must have been only in the order of one or two thousand modules, when the behaviour is still close enough to linear.

As the property is still experimental, stylelint does not recognize it yet at the time of writing this, so let's explicitly disable the property-no-unknown rule only where we use it by adding a stylelint-disable comment and re-enable it afterwards.

Document your build process in a blog, use eslint, stylelint and jsx-a11y lint. Run a lighthouse performance test, follow the optimisation reccomendations.

Run static analysis e.g. lint with lockfile-lint, Stylelint, ESLint, check for unimported files using unimported, and identify potential security vulnerabilities

Stylelint

I use StyleLint (https://stylelint.io/) to lint my css/scss. I don't think that's a rule, but writing a custom rule isn't too tough. And you can use the vscode extension - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=stylelint.vscode-stylelint

The complete code for this project is in the Rodney Lab GitHub repo. I do hope the post has either helped you with an existing project or provided some inspiration for a new one. As an extension, you can add all your favourite future CSS rules to the PostCSS config. Beyond PostCSS for linting your input CSS, consider trying stylelint.
