Linting ​

Linting helps everyone agree on a style to use across projects

Are you attached to semi-colons at the end of the line? Linting can help make sure they're always there.

Ignores ​

Sometimes it is necessary to ignore some rules. You're making an informed decision to go against the project's recommendation. Sometimes that is necessary.

Following summarized via: https://masteringjs.io/tutorials/eslint/ignore

disable individual lint rules using

const res = eval('42'); // eslint-disable-line no-eval

const res = eval('42'); // eslint-disable-line no-eval

The // eslint-disable-line comment disables the no-eval rule for just that line.

You can also disable the no-eval rule for an entire function block by using /* eslint-disable */.

function usesEval() {
  /* eslint-disable no-eval */
  const res = eval('42');
  const res2 = eval('test');

  return res2 + res;
}

function usesEval() {
  /* eslint-disable no-eval */
  const res = eval('42');
  const res2 = eval('test');

  return res2 + res;
}

If you put /* eslint-disable no-eval */ before any code in a .js file, that will disable the no-eval rule for the entire file.

TODO: Confirm - Only following code block? Or whole file?

You can also disable all ESLint rules by putting /* eslint-disable */ at the top of a file.
