Installation

Setting up eslint-config-airbnb-extended is simple and flexible. You can either use the automated CLI tool (create-airbnb-x-config) or perform a manual installation (not recommended).

We strongly suggest using the CLI tool since it ensures you always have the latest configuration and avoids unnecessary setup mistakes.

Automate the Setup with create-airbnb-x-config

The easiest way to get started is by running the CLI tool inside your project directory:

npm

$ npx create-airbnb-x-config

yarn

$ yarn dlx create-airbnb-x-config

pnpm

$ pnpx create-airbnb-x-config

This tool will guide you step by step, helping you configure ESLint quickly with the Airbnb Extended setup.

Manual Installation (Not Recommended)

While you can install everything by hand, we do not recommend it. Manual installation requires you to:

• Identify all required packages
• Install them individually
• Keep them updated manually

This approach can lead to inconsistencies if new changes are introduced in the configuration.

If you still prefer this method, refer to the Packages Used section for a breakdown of dependencies.
