Hi everyone,

Thank you for coming, so in this article I wanna share my experience when I start to setup my React project with typescript, but I have issues when I start to setup eslint on my workspace , I getting some error message on my linter,

so I will giving summary for what I do for solving this issue

and I hope this can help you, so let’s get started

first lets create initalize your react project

npx create-react-app my-app — template typescript

yarn create react-app my-app — template typescript

after that, lets start to install linter on our workspace

npm install eslint — save-dev

using — save-dev cause we only want to install this module on devDependencies,

after finsihed,

following this command below

npx eslint — init

but dont worry if your code it’s not same with my code below, cause Im ready to install eslint-plugin-sonarjs before,

the last step is

npm install eslint-plugin-sonarjs — save-dev

cause we’ve ready initalize plugin and enhance extends are rules, so you can skip this step and only install this module

and you can running your project withut issue linter, hope this help
