Developer Uday Rana recently shared his experience integrating Oxlint, a new linting tool, into his Node.js project. Oxlint is designed to detect erroneous or useless code without requiring any configurations by default, making it faster than existing solutions like ESLint. The setup process was straightforward, involving the installation of eslint-plugin-oxlint and configuration updates in package.json and eslint.config.mjs.
Rana also shared some additional insights from his experience, including the realization that he had been setting up lint-staged incorrectly, leading to race conditions, and the discovery that Prettier follows .gitignore rules, making .prettierignore redundant. His post highlights the benefits of Oxlint's speed and scalability, as well as its ease of integration with existing development tools.
