eslint-config-basic

Building a DX-first ESLint toolkit

I built @santi020k/eslint-config-basic to remove lint setup friction from the kind of projects I work on most: React, Next.js, Astro, TypeScript, and monorepos with real teams behind them. It is the successor to my original @santi020k/eslint-config-santi020k package, rebuilt from scratch around ESLint’s flat config format with a much wider framework footprint and better DX throughout.

Goals

• Reduce setup friction for new projects so teams can get to useful standards faster.
• Encode strong defaults based on real project work across front-end apps, tooling, Astro sites, and monorepos.
• Stay composable so different stacks can opt into the pieces they actually need instead of inheriting a giant monolith.

What I built

• A composable ESLint core for JavaScript and TypeScript projects, with auto-detection for the frameworks and tools already in your repo.
• Optional packages for React, Next.js, Astro, Vue, Svelte, Solid, Angular, NestJS, Expo, Qwik, and Remix.
• A strict mode that promotes warnings to errors for CI/CD pipelines and stricter team workflows.
• First-class support for Tailwind CSS, Vitest, and Testing Library, plus documentation and examples that make adoption easier for teams, not just for me.

Results

• 229+ weekly npm downloads across personal, client, and shared codebases.
• Less repeated setup work whenever a new project or experiment starts.
• A reusable expression of my engineering standards in a form other teams can actually adopt and extend.

Why it matters

Linting is rarely the star of the show, but it changes how teams work. This project reflects how I think about developer tooling in general: remove friction, encode good defaults, and make quality easier to maintain at scale.
