This package provides the shared ESLint configuration used by Ontario Frontend projects. It enforces a consistent code style for JavaScript projects to help keep code clean and readable.

• Print Width: Set to 80 characters to maintain readability across various devices and editors.
• Tab Width: Uses 2 spaces for indentation to ensure code is clean and readable.
• Semicolons: Requires semicolons at the end of statements for clarity.
• Single Quotes: Enforces the use of single quotes for strings, except in Markdown files where double quotes are preferred.
• Trailing Commas: Requires trailing commas in multi-line objects, arrays, etc., which makes version control diffs cleaner.
• Bracket Spacing: Ensures spaces are present inside object literal braces for better readability.
• Bracket Same Line: Places the closing angle bracket of elements on the same line as the last prop.
• Overrides for Markdown: For .md files, double quotes are used instead of single quotes.

To use the @ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario in your project, follow the steps for based on your package manager:

1. First, you need to install ESLint if it's not already installed:

   npm install eslint --save-dev

2. Next, install the @ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario package:

   npm install @ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario --save-dev

1. First, you need to install ESLint if it's not already installed:

   yarn add eslint --dev

2. Next, install the @ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario package:

   yarn add @ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario --dev

After installation, you'll need to set up your ESLint configuration file if you haven't already. Here's how:

1. Create a file named .eslintrc.json in your project's root directory.

2. Add the following content to .eslintrc.json to extend the @ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario configuration:

   {
       "extends": "@ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario"
   }

This line tells ESLint to use the @ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario rules for your project.

If you need to override any rules, you can do so within your project's .eslintrc file. For example:

{
  "extends": "@ontario-digital-service/eslint-config-ontario",
  "rules": {
    "no-unused-vars": "warn",
    "semi": ["error", "never"]
  }
}

This customization will change the handling of unused variables to a warning and remove the requirement for semicolons.
