Where is repo for eslint-config-rackt exists now?

[vtambourine]

Suddenly all repos for ESLint presets eslint-config-rackt/eslint-config-reactjs responds 404. Where are they now? Does they exists?

I believe @mjackson removed it, as we're going to start centralizing on eslint-config-airbnb. history already made the switch, so we should probably do that too at some point. I don't think the NPM module is going to get yanked any time soon, but I would avoid using it.

👍 Ya, I removed the repo because nobody was maintaining it. Linting is up to individual package maintainers now. Semi-colons!!!1!!

Great, thanks for clarification!

So, semicolon are now in favour? I am confused. All of the redux official examples are written in semicolonless style (more like standard, I guess). I thought this is the style most contributors prefer :)

I thought this is the style most contributors prefer :)

It’s a style Ryan and Michael chose for rackt at the time, and since Redux was a part of it, we went with it. I never cared too much either way 😄 . I’ll be happy to get back to airbnb style. In fact I think maybe we should just show semicolons or no semicolons randomly every day so people stop paying attention to them 😉 .

@gaearon I am happy not worrying about style at all. I like adopting code style from projects I am contributing to or grabbing code from. By this way, having preset like eslint-rackt or eslint-reactjs is wonderful, since all I need to do is just install appropriate package and go back writing clean code. It's great to have eslint-config-airbnb, but what is great even more is to have some agreed community convention on it :)

We were using airbnb before joining rackt and I’m happy to get back to it now that rackt dissolved into reactjs. I don’t think we want a separate reactjs config.

@gaearon I remember you saying you don't use semicolons because of some team coding style, but airbnb enforces their presence: https://github.com/airbnb/javascript#semicolons -- what has changed?

[gaearon]

I think I just clarified this above: #1509 (comment)
We were part of rackt. They used no semicolons. Now rackt has morphed into reactjs and the consensus seems to be airbnb. We could do that too if somebody has time to prepare a PR. I don’t care much about this. 😄

[sompylasar]

@gaearon I see, great, thank you for clarification. 👍

Is there any chance of turning the choices from something like react-quick-start into a reactjs maintained style guide? Airbnb seems like a good place to start, but they're committed to doing their own thing, not necessarily going where the community is going.

"what's common" isn't the primary motivator for this guide, it's "what we use at Airbnb".

FWIW I just use eslint-plugin-react's "recommended" settings these days and go from there. You can see how I do it based on some of my more recent work:

• react-point's .eslintrc
• react-media's .eslintrc

@battaile if there's anything (besides the jsx thing, which has been discussed at length) you think the community is doing differently than the airbnb guide, please feel free to contribute at airbnb/javascript#1089
