requarks/eslint-config-requarks

eslint-config-requarks is a set of code style rules for JavaScript projects. It helps teams automatically check that their code looks consistent, so every developer writes in a similar style without having to debate formatting choices. At a high level, it builds on an existing popular style guide called StandardJS, which enforces conventions like no semicolons and specific spacing patterns. The main difference is that this config relaxes a couple of StandardJS's rules: it won't force you to put a space before function parentheses, and it won't require specific handling of error variables in catch blocks. Once installed, a tool called ESLint runs these checks against your code automatically, either in your editor or as part of your build process. The people who'd use this are developers working on projects tied to the requarks ecosystem (the team behind wiki.js and similar tools) who want a straightforward, opinionated style guide without needing to configure every rule themselves. A founder or PM managing a small engineering team might also appreciate it because it removes formatting debates from code reviews, the rules are set, and the tool enforces them. For a beginner, it's a way to adopt good JavaScript habits without having to understand every individual linting rule. The notable tradeoff here is simplicity over flexibility. Rather than offering dozens of configurable options, it gives you one preset that's close to StandardJS with minor tweaks. If you agree with those choices, it's a one-line setup. If you want different rules, you'd need to override them yourself. The README is brief and doesn't go into detail about why those specific two rules were changed, so you're trusting the maintainer's judgment on what makes code cleaner.
