The Bridgekeeper’s Final Question
“What… is your preferred linter configuration?”
A developer steps forward and opens their .eslintrc.json. It’s 200 lines long. There are 47 plugins. There’s a prettier override inside an overrides array inside a rules object. The Bridgekeeper’s eye twitches.
Into the Gorge.
The next developer says: “Deno. Built-in linter, built-in formatter. Zero config.”
The Bridgekeeper has no follow-up questions. The developer crosses.
The Bridgekeeper mutters something about how this job used to be harder, and retires.
