ESLint Config Generator

Every team argues about eslint rules. This tool reads your actual code and generates a config that matches how you already write.

One command. Zero config. Just works.

Quick Start

npx ai-eslint-config

What It Does

Analyzes your existing code style
Generates ESLint config matching those patterns
Supports flat config and legacy formats
No more arguing about semicolons

Usage Examples

# Generate eslint.config.js
npx ai-eslint-config

# Legacy .eslintrc.json format
npx ai-eslint-config --format json

# Analyze specific directory
npx ai-eslint-config --dir ./src

Best Practices

Run on representative code - not just one file
Review the rules - might catch some bad habits too
Add prettier if needed - don't mix formatting with linting
Commit the config - everyone uses the same rules

When to Use This

Starting a new project and need eslint setup
Inheriting a project with no linting
Want to codify existing code style
Migrating to flat config format
