What this system is
This system is a collection of ESLint configuration packages that enforce code quality and style standards for JavaScript, Markdown, and React applications. It provides modular rule sets for general JavaScript, accessibility, and React-specific patterns, allowing developers to apply consistent linting rules across different project types. The system supports modern ESLint versions and offers granular control over which rules are active.
Features
Add JSHint configuration for SublimeLinter
A new SublimeLinter settings file is introduced, configuring JSHint with strict linting rules. This includes enforcing camelCase or UPPER\_CASE variable naming, requiring single quotes for strings, prohibiting ==/!= operators, and enabling checks for undefined variables, unused variables, and line length limits.

Add default linting configurations for ESLint, JSHint, and Markdown
The linters directory now includes new configuration files that establish baseline linting rules for the project. An ESLint configuration is added that extends the 'airbnb' style guide, while a JSHint configuration is introduced with settings for browser/Node.js environments, ES6 support, and code style enforcement. Additionally, a Markdown linting configuration is added to enforce consistent formatting for Markdown files, covering headers, lists, code blocks, and other structural elements.

New ESLint configuration files for React, accessibility, and hooks
The project introduces three new ESLint rule configuration files: react.js, react-a11y.js, and react-hooks.js. The react.js file configures rules for general React development, including JSX formatting, prop validation, and lifecycle methods. The react-a11y.js file adds accessibility-focused rules from the jsx-a11y plugin, ensuring elements are accessible and interactive. The react-hooks.js file enforces the Rules of Hooks and exhaustive dependencies for React hooks. These files collectively provide a comprehensive set of linting rules for React applications, covering standard React patterns, accessibility requirements, and modern hooks usage.

Behavioural changes
Airbnb ESLint base config v15.0.0: modernizes rules, drops old ESLint versions, and adds exports map
The eslint-config-airbnb-base package has been updated to version 15.0.0, introducing several breaking changes and modernizations. It now requires ESLint v7 or v8, dropping support for older versions. The configuration has been updated to use the \exports\ field in package.json for better module resolution. Key rule changes include enabling \no-unsafe-optional-chaining\, updating the default \ecmaVersion\ to 2018, and adjusting various rules like \function-paren-newline\ and \complexity\. The package also includes a new \whitespace\ entry point that only enforces whitespace-related rules, and a \legacy\ entry point for older JavaScript versions. Documentation and installation instructions have been updated to reflect these changes, including support for Yarn and npx shortcuts.

Restructure eslint-config-airbnb into modular entry points
The package has been restructured to provide distinct configuration entry points. Users can now extend from \eslint-config-airbnb\ for the full set of rules, \eslint-config-airbnb/hooks\ for React Hooks linting, \eslint-config-airbnb/whitespace\ for whitespace-only rules, and \eslint-config-airbnb/base\ for non-React rules. This modularization allows developers to import only the rules they need, simplifying configuration and reducing the scope of linting rules applied to a project.

Split ESLint base config into category-specific rule files
The \eslint-config-airbnb-base\ configuration has been restructured by splitting the monolithic rules file into separate modules for each category: \best-practices.js\, \errors.js\, \es6.js\, \imports.js\, \node.js\, \strict.js\, \style.js\, and \variables.js\. This change improves maintainability and allows for more granular configuration of ESLint rules by category.

Test coverage
Added automated tests for ESLint configuration entry points and React method ordering
Added new test files in the \packages/eslint-config-airbnb/test\ directory to verify that all ESLint configuration entry points (index, base, legacy, whitespace, hooks) parse without throwing errors. Additionally, new tests validate that the base configuration does not include React-specific rules or plugins, and that the React configuration correctly enforces method ordering via the \react/sort-comp\ rule.

Dependencies
Update ESLint config dependencies to support ESLint 7 and 8
The AirBnb ESLint config packages have been updated to support ESLint versions 7.32.0 and 8.2.0 or higher. This includes updating peer dependencies for \eslint\, \eslint-plugin-import\, \eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y\, \eslint-plugin-react\, and \eslint-plugin-react-hooks\ to their latest compatible versions, ensuring compatibility with modern ESLint releases while maintaining support for older versions where applicable.

How this codebase got here
This is the PUBLIC form of this artifact. Findings are listed in full, but the details of SECURITY findings — which rule fired, in which file, on which line, and how to fix it — are deliberately withheld, and any secret-scanner results are excluded entirely. Where detail is absent here it was REMOVED FOR PUBLICATION; it is not missing from the analysis. The complete artifact is available from the repository owner.
