Pattern: Use of namespace import

Issue: -

Description

Namespace imports (using *) import an entire module even when only specific functions are needed. This can lead to naming conflicts, namespace pollution, reduced code clarity, and less efficient tree-shaking.

Examples

Example of incorrect code:

import * as user from "user-lib";
import some, * as user from "./user";

Example of correct code:

import { getUserName, isUser } from "user-lib";
import defaultExport, { isUser } from "./user";
