Usage (`eslint.config.js`)

Requires ESLint >=8.23.0.

Use a preset config or configure each rule in eslint.config.js.

If you don't use the preset, ensure you use the same languageOptions config as below.

ES Module (Recommended)

import eslintPluginUnicorn from 'eslint-plugin-unicorn';
import * as eslintrc from '@eslint/eslintrc';

export default [
	{
		languageOptions: {
			globals: eslintrc.Legacy.environments.get('es2024'),
		},
		plugins: {
			unicorn: eslintPluginUnicorn,
		},
		rules: {
			'unicorn/better-regex': 'error',
			'unicorn/…': 'error',
		},
	},
	// …
];

CommonJS

'use strict';
const eslintPluginUnicorn = require('eslint-plugin-unicorn');
const eslintrc = require('@eslint/eslintrc');

module.exports = [
