This PR migrates the project from ESLint to oxlint, a fast Rust-based linter that provides significant performance improvements while maintaining code quality standards.

Key Changes

  • Replaced ESLint with oxlint: Removed ESLint and all related dependencies (~96 packages), replaced with lightweight oxlint
  • Created .oxlintrc.json: Simple configuration enabling React and import plugins to match existing linting requirements
  • Updated npm scripts: Modified lint command to use oxlint --react-plugin --import-plugin --deny-warnings
  • Updated documentation: Revised README.md to reflect the new linting setup and provide usage instructions

Performance Improvements

  • Dramatic speed increase: Linting now completes in ~144ms (vs several seconds with ESLint)
  • Reduced bundle size: Removed 96 ESLint-related packages from devDependencies
  • Maintained strictness: --deny-warnings flag ensures warnings still cause CI failures

Quality Assurance

  • All critical React rules preserved (hooks dependencies, JSX keys, etc.)
  • TypeScript support maintained out-of-the-box
  • Import/export validation continues working
  • Build process unchanged and fully functional
  • 57 warnings detected (vs 85 issues with ESLint) - oxlint focuses on meaningful problems

Migration Benefits

Zero breaking changes - existing workflow remains the same
Better developer experience - near-instantaneous feedback
Cleaner dependencies - significantly reduced node_modules size
Modern tooling - leverages Rust performance for JavaScript linting

The migration maintains all essential code quality checks while dramatically improving development speed and reducing dependency overhead.
