Adding Static Analysis Tools to the Barrierless Project

  Prettier is an opinionated code formatter.

  

  Since Barrierless is primarily built in JavaScript, I decided to use Prettier as the project’s source code formatter. Prettier is a popular choice in the JavaScript community, known for enforcing a consistent code style automatically. With Prettier, formatting rules are predefined and eliminate the need for contributors to focus on stylistic details, allowing them to focus on the code logic itself.

  Barrierless is an open-source command-line tool designed to break down language barriers by providing seamless translations between languages. It allows users to quickly and easily translate text files into their target language, making communication across different languages effortless.

  As I continue to improve the Barrierless project, I recognized the need to enhance code quality and ensure consistency across all contributions. Adding a source code formatter and linter would enforce a uniform style and prevent common errors, streamlining the development process and making it more efficient for all contributors. Here’s a breakdown of my process and the decisions I made to add Prettier and ESLint to the project.

• ESLint

  416 25,198 9.7 JavaScript

  Find and fix problems in your JavaScript code.

  

  To catch common coding issues and enforce best practices, I chose ESLint as the linter for the Barrierless project. ESLint is highly configurable, and it integrates well with JavaScript projects, identifying potential errors, bad practices, and non-standard code.
