ALC's ESLint config

This is my preferred set of ESLint rules, bundled up into a single ESLint config. Suitable for React JS and Node development. Aimed at ESLint v5, but should work with v4.

I liked the baseline set of rules that Netflix use in their DEA eslint config package (eslint-config-netflix-dea) but I wanted something a little stricter. I found their package was a good, sensible starting point for me to built atop with some of the rules I felt were missing.

Installation

Install it as a local package along with ESLint itself via NPM:

npm i -D eslint eslint-config-alc

Or Yarn:

yarn add -D eslint eslint-config-alc

Then create yourself an .eslintrc file that extends the config:

{
  "extends": ["alc"]
}

And off you go! ✨

Rules

I created this package to enforce some rules I prefer using in projects. It extends the Netflix DEA ESLint config package and adds a few additional rules on top to make the config a bit stricter. From experience I've learned that stricter settings overall produce more consistent code. However, I don't think I went too overboard and in general this config should be relatively painless to use.

Have a look inside index.js to see what rules I've added over and above Netflixes base DEA config.
