eslint-config-prettier VS twin.examples

As I was reading the Prettier documentation I stumbled upon this blob which talks about how to make ESLint and Prettier play nicely with each other. It instructed to install eslint-config-prettier dependency in my project using the command npm install --save-dev eslint-config-prettier. Then I added prettier as part of the .eslintrc.cjs' extends array making prettier dependency part of the linting process. Lastly, I ran its cmd line helper npx eslint-config-prettier path/to/main.js to check if there were any ESLint rules which are unnecessary or would conflict with Prettier. The test results came out fine with no unnecessary or conflicting rules. The use case on how it works and why to use it is mentioned here.

I wouldn’t say they’re arguing something completely different. A large subset of linting rules are by nature purely formatting rules. You can enforce line length with either prettier or a linter and both can auto fix the issue.

Because of this things like [`eslint-config-prettier`](https://github.com/prettier/eslint-config-prettier) exist to ensure conflicting eslint formatting rules are disabled if they can be handled by prettier.

If you use Prettier you should disable any and all eslint formatting rules. It's just not worth the hassle trying to make them "compatible". Fortunately there's an easy way to do that with a plugin.

Also add this eslint plugin, which makes eslint play nice with prettier: https://github.com/prettier/eslint-config-prettier

If you don’t care about the diagnostics, you should be using this instead. Prettier even says so.

Linting is an important step in maintaining code quality, The React Library Builder uses ESLint and eslint-config-prettier for linting. You can modify linting rules by overriding them in the .eslintrc file.

eslint-config-prettier: An ESLint configuration which disables the formatting rules in ESLint that Prettier is going to be responsible for handling, hence avoiding any clashes.

You can use both Eslint and Prettier if you care greatly about both linting and code formatting. Prettier had a plugin to disable Eslint's formatting rules.

The eslint-config-prettier package disables all ESLint rules that might conflict with Prettier. This lets us use ESLint configurations without letting it get in the way when using Prettier. We can then use the eslint-plugin-prettier package to integrate Prettier rules into ESLint rules. Finally, we must set the Prettier rules in the ESLint configuration file. Add the following configuration to the .eslintrc file in the root directory of the application:

Hey, I'm trying (and failing) to put together a codesandbox. I think it's easier to replicate the steps from here: https://github.com/ben-rogerson/twin.examples/tree/master/next-styled-components

well, this is exactly how it's set up in the twin.macro example repo with next.js, and it is working perfectly fine?

You can pretty much follow all the steps from this tutorial, until this point where it tells you to extend JSX with a jsx-pragma in front of every twin.macro import. The documentation underneath says the following:

Alright, I had my tools in place and it was time to start connecting the dots, so to speak. I kicked off a new TSDX project, installed Styled components, and then went on to try and set up twin.macro. However, I hit a snag there... In the Twin example repo, there was no Styled Components + Storybook example, so I configured what seemed to make sense. Then I went on to add some samples, imported them into a new Story, and tried to run Storybook. It didn't work as expected. Some of the code worked and other components that were using the tw syntax didn't:

the biggest would be as a plugin to compile/transpile other language macros for example twin-macro (styled components using tailwind syntax) https://github.com/ben-rogerson/twin.examples/tree/master/component-library-styled-components/packages/components
