Instead of writing our own exhaustive list of JavaScript rules, we can use a ruleset defined by the developers at Airbnb, and then adjust it to suit our preferences. The Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide is well known among JavaScript developers and used by some big companies: Lonely Planet, National Geographic and Sainsburys to name a few. It’s a great place to start.

Extensible : ESLint supports the use of plugins and custom rules, enabling you to extend its functionality to suit your project requirements. Notably, there are popular ESLint plugins that align with well-established coding standards and styles. Examples include Airbnb JS Style Guide and Google JS Style Guide.

An obvious pick for React projects, but eslint-plugin-react along with their plugin:react/recommended rule set is a must. This will give you some sensible rules such as requiring a key to be specified in JSX arrays. eslint-config-airbnb is another good (if a bit loose) base rule set on top of eslint-plugin-react to start from.

Feel free to play around with the rules defined above or extend some of the other configurations like eslint-config-google to figure out what’s best suited for your project.

The Google JavaScript Style Guide was released in 2012, and it has the complete definition of coding standards used at Google. This style guide has two parts, one focusing on style rules (aesthetic issues of formatting) and the other focusing on language rules (conventions and coding standards). In addition, it has an ESLint package that you can use to incorporate the style guide into your project.

It is much easier to understand a large project when its code is written in a consistent style. This is where style guides come in handy. Using a style guide enhances a team's productivity and avoids arguments about the best style guide for Node.js projects. In addition, you can opt-in to already existing style guides created at companies like Google and Airbnb that have been tested with time.

Well done, we managed to set up ESLint using Airbnb’s JavaScript styling guide to our newly created Next.js project. You could have used another popular styling guide like Google, Standard, or even create your own to your liking.
