Which companies are using `standard`?

[feross]

If you use standard at your company or organization, please leave a comment here. Include a link to proof, if you can!

Context: I just got a message from someone trying to convince his co-workers to adopt standard. He asked for a list of companies who are currently using standard to make them feel more comfortable. Then I realized that we don't actually have such a list. Let's make one!

[feross]

I'll start things off with my company, Study Notes (proof). I also consulted for Brave Software who use it (proof).

Others that I know are using it:

• npm (proof)
• Electron (proof)
• Zeit (proof)
• Mocha (proof)
• Express (proof)
• Dat (proof)

[watson]

• Opbeat (proof)

[southpolesteve]

Bustle proof

[andresmijares]

Shiftgig (all private :-( sry)

[dcousens]

• crypto-browserify proof
• cryptocoin-js proof
• bitcoinjs proof

[skellock]

• Ignite - A React Native Boilerplate (proof) - by Infinite Red + all our client's apps
• Reactotron - An Electron app for debugging React Native & React JS (proof) + 13 modules in all
• apisauce - axios + a few opinions (proof)

[cesarandreu]

• Treasure Data (proof: digdag-ui, td-js-sdk)

We're also using it in our main product's frontend, which is a large(?) SPA. Running cloc --exclude-dir=build,e2e,node_modules,tmp,vendor . shows JavaScript and JSX are around +76K SLOC.

[feross]

@cesarandreu Is your front-end open source by chance? I'm looking for more codebases that use babel, JSX, and all the modern fanciness to add to our test suite. We over-represent modules in our current test suite; we could use some more large apps.

• Zendesk

use it in multiple products and internal tools. Private repos, so no proof.

[junosuarez]

here's some Zendesk proof in an open source repo https://github.com/zendesk/radar/blob/master/package.json#L76

[bcomnes]

We use a slightly customized eslint @ZHealth

Last year when I worked at Jaguar Land Rover's @PDXostc our team used standard on some closed source projects I'm not allowed to talk about.

I also use it on all my open source work.

Also there is this pic of @timbl 😉

Also @BrendanEich (Same thread as above) can be seen reppin standard 🙌

MongoDB uses standard for quite a few of its web properties! (including mongodb.com) Unfortunately since the repos are private, the only proof I can present is a stamp on a package:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mongodb-js/mongodb-ui-components

[timdp]

• Zentrick (proof)

[fbaiodias]

• Typeform

We started using it for more than a year ago, in multiple projects including internal tools, node services, web apps and our mobile app. All private repos, no proof :(

[jprichardson]

All repos that Exodus Movement, Inc. owns including the main app (private) itself use it.

[davidmarkclements]

We use standard at nearForm

[olizilla]

• TABLEFLIP (proof)

[victorb]

Protocol Labs (Behind IPFS & libp2p) across basically all JavaScript projects that are using aegir (proof)

[garretto]

We use it on one product at TASER (no proof) https://www.taser.com/

[gimenete]

Clevertech. We have many projects and we use standard in a few of them.

[rstacruz]

• Mashupgarage :)

I just learned that the UK government is using standard. Specifically, it's used by the UK Government Digital Service (GDS). Here's the proof.

[2color]

OptioPay uses it in the core product and internal tools.

Private repos, so no proof.

[lndgalante]

@feross would be great to have a section on the website "Who's using it?"

[feross]

@Fenwil Agreed – let's convert this issue into a section in the readme/website. Until then, let's keep this issue open so we can continue to learn about new users.

[watson]

@feross let me know if you want help with adding this to the README.md

[junosuarez]

here's zendesk logos for whoever starts gathering this: https://www.zendesk.com/company/brand-assets/#logo

[watson]

Here's Opbeats: http://brand.opbeat.com

[feross]

Thanks for volunteering to help @watson. I just sent a PR: #744 Feedback welcome.

[watson]

PR is: #764

[feross]

It's merged. Looks pretty cool if you ask me! https://github.com/feross/standard#who-uses-javascript-standard-style

[dsingleton]

I just learned that the UK government is using standard. Specifically, it's used by the UK Government Digital Service (GDS). Here's the proof.

GDS-dev here 👋

We're using it on our shared frontend tooling repos, like the one you linked, and we recommend it in our coding styleguides repo. 👍

[feross]

@dsingleton Nice :)

[kt3k]

• Karma
• greenkeeper
• engine.io of socket.io

[feross]

Thanks, @kt3k. Added Karma and Greenkeeper to the readme. (Engine.io doesn't have a logo)

[feross]

Closing this issue now. Thanks to everyone who shared where they're using standard, whether at work or in an open source project. Cheers!

If you want to be on the list, you can still leave a comment or send a PR and I'll add you.

[hanford]

Eaze is using standard!

Here is a photo from one of our many private repos.

And our logo!

I'm making an argument to choose standard over semistandard for a project I maintain, and found the list at standardjs.com. I started down the list, and initially was confused, because a number of the big projects projects I checked, like the Mongo and Neo4j JavaScript drivers and express, have semicolons. I understand why these projects are on the list. Though, I still need to identify major projects which are not using semicolons.

I'm curious if there are other major ones I'm missing…

---

Updated list

These are the most prominent open-source projects I could find, using standard with no semicolons:

• Karma
• Github projects: atom, electron, node-fetch
• npm
• Zeit projects: next.js, hyper, styled-jsx
• Greenkeeper
• express (lines are brought to standard when they are modified) and related projects body-parser and multer
• request 🍒
• fastify 🍒

Other prominent projects not using semicolons (though not using standard):

• Bootstrap
• Vue
• Lodash
• redux and react-redux
• zepto

[LinusU]

@paulmelnikow In express, you'll see that we convert every line that we touch to be standard compliant, so we are slowly getting there. We don't want to convert everything in one go because it would make maintaining our old versions harder...

(e.g. expressjs/express@b97faff)

also, you might want to throw in multer in that list, don't know if it meets the criteria but since body-parser was there I figured it might...

[paulmelnikow]

Wow! That's really good to know. It makes sense why you wouldn't change it all in one go.

Do you have tooling that enforces that the changed lines are brought up to standard? I imagine that would be very difficult to check without tooling.

[dougwilson]

I just run standard against the PR using a bash script that only shows the errors on the changed lines.

[paulmelnikow]

Does that run in CI?

[dougwilson]

No, because I couldn't figure out how to get that running with the correct diff, as it would see lines changed in Travis CI that the user never changed. Since GitHub is not used to merge PRs anyway, easier just to automatically fix lint errors for contributors during landing instead of forcing the contributor to figure it out anyway.
