Problem

One thing JSCS has that ESLint does not is the concept of built-in style presets. ESLint instead prefers people to make and maintain their own shareable configs. The current JSCS presets are: - [x] Airbnb (`eslint-config-airbnb`) - [ ] Crockford - [x] Google (`eslint-config-google`) - [x] Grunt (`eslint-config-grunt`) - [x] Idiomatic (`eslint-config-idiomatic`) - [x] jQuery (`eslint-config-jquery`) - [ ] MDCS - [x] Node Style Guide (`node-style-guide`) - [x] Wikimedia (`eslint-config-wikimedia`) - [x] Wordpress (`eslint-config-wordpress`) It would be good to see which of these presets are most commonly used and potentially reach out to the various projects (Node, jQuery, Grunt, etc.) to see if they would be interested in creating a shareable config that can be used with ESLint.

Survey and Analyze Usage of JSCS Presets for ESLint Adoption

Medium Risk

JSCS has built-in style presets that ESLint lacks, leading to a fragmented configuration landscape. The popularity of these presets is unclear, making it difficult to advocate for their adaptation into ESLint shareable configs.

  1. 1

    Conduct a Survey on JSCS Preset Usage

    Create a survey targeting developers who use JSCS to gather data on which presets they utilize most frequently. Use platforms like GitHub, Twitter, and developer forums to distribute the survey.

    Reach Out to Project Maintainers

    Contact the maintainers of the most popular JSCS presets (e.g., Google, Airbnb, etc.) to discuss the possibility of creating shareable ESLint configs. Prepare a proposal highlighting the benefits of this collaboration.

  4. 4

    Create a GitHub Repository for Shareable ESLint Configs

    Set up a GitHub repository to host the shareable ESLint configurations based on the popular JSCS presets. Include documentation on how to use these configs.

    bash
    git init
mkdir eslint-configs
cd eslint-configs
echo '# ESLint Configs' > README.md
  5. 5

    Promote the New ESLint Configs

    Once the shareable configs are created, promote them through social media, developer blogs, and relevant communities to encourage adoption.
