Hello all,
We need to have a linter tp keep our codebase clean, consistent, and close to the best practices is
Critria
- developed by a community
- good editor support (at least VSCode and Jetbrain’s IDEs)
- extensible, to be able to support additional syntax on top of the ones we already use (javascript, typescript, vue…)

| Build on top of eslint and babel, take a more radical stance on fixing and allow itself to apply fix than can change the semantics. |
