Best Practices

Configuration: ✓ Use flat config for new projects ✓ Enable type-checked rules ✓ Integrate with Prettier ✓ Set up pre-commit hooks Rules: ✓ Start with recommended, customize as needed ✓ Use consistent-type-imports ✓ Enable no-floating-promises ✓ Allow underscore for unused vars Performance: ✓ Cache results in CI ✓ Use project references for monorepos ✓ Ignore generated files ✓ Run in parallel when possible

Conclusion

ESLint with TypeScript catches type-related bugs and enforces consistency. Use flat config for new projects, enable strict type checking, and integrate with Prettier for formatting. Pre-commit hooks ensure code quality before commits reach the repository.
