yo VS ESLint

Maybe recheck the name ? https://www.npmjs.com/package/yo https://yeoman.io/

FYI, the name of the tool conflicts with the well-known project-scaffolding generation tool yeoman (which also uses yo as the program name)

Yeoman

I am familiar with Yeoman but the project appears dead. There are no replies to recent comments and the last release was a year ago. I would prefer to not use a dead/dying project as the basis for a new work. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The next best option would be yeoman - https://yeoman.io/

you're probably thinking of yeoman https://github.com/yeoman/yo

We'll need to install the Yeoman scaffolding CLI tools as well as the generator.

Have you tried yo? Haven't tried it much so can't say for sure but it's a pretty common recommendation for project generators.

I used Yeoman to generate the scaffolding. Make a project folder and run:

If you're a developer, you're surely familiar with Prettier and ESLint. With over 8 years of existence, they have established themselves as references in the JavaScript ecosystem.

eslint is used to avoid code errors

No lint errors: The committed code does not contain any lint errors (eslint).

Let’s walk through the steps for a one-time setup to configure husky pre-commit and pre-push hooks, ESLint with code styles conventions, prettier code formatter, and lint-staged. Husky automatically runs a script on each commit or push. This is useful for linting files to enforce code styles that keeps the entire code base following conventions.

ESLint: A pluggable and configurable linter tool for identifying and reporting on patterns in JavaScript.

1. Lack of Static Code Analysis Static code analysis tools like TypeScript and ESLint play a crucial role in identifying and preventing bugs. TypeScript provides static typing, enhancing the robustness of the code. ESLint detects issues and enforces coding standards. The absence of these tools can significantly elevate the likelihood of bugs due to the lack of early detection and guidance provided during development.

The industry standard for JavaScript is ESLint. VS Code has an ESLint extension. Here is a guide.

All modern linters incorporate functionality for extending configurations, although the syntax for this is often implemented differently. Taking ESLint as an example, in its latest versions, the primary extension method is through the use of the spread operator. Let's take a look at an example:
