About StandardJS

JavaScript Standard Style is a development tool that provides a shared JavaScript code style guide, linter, and formatter for coding projects. It is designed to remove the overhead of creating and maintaining custom style configuration files, making it simple to enforce consistent coding conventions across teams and open source projects.

Users can run the tool via the command line to scan JavaScript and JSX files for style violations and common programmer errors, and use the standard --fix command to automatically reformat inconsistent code. It integrates with npm test scripts, editor plugins for Sublime Text and Atom, and other development workflows to catch issues early and reduce time spent on style feedback during code reviews. The tool is particularly suited for individual developers, open source maintainers, and teams that prioritize code clarity and community conventions over personal coding preferences.
