Command

npm run lint

Explanation

The Next.js ESLint integration runs static code analysis across your project, helping you catch syntax errors, unused variables, and unsafe patterns. It supports automatic fixing and works with custom configurations via `.eslintrc.json` or `next.config.js`. Linting helps maintain readability and prevents bugs early in development.

Common Use Cases

  • Check code style and consistency
  • Catch syntax and logic errors before build
  • Integrate ESLint with CI/CD pipelines

Best Practices

  • Run linting before committing changes
  • Use `.eslintignore` to skip generated or build files
  • Combine with Prettier for consistent formatting

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Ignoring lint warnings instead of fixing root causes
  • Using incompatible ESLint plugin versions

Troubleshooting

Problem: Linting fails after update

Solution: Ensure ESLint version matches Next.js supported range.

Problem: Too many lint errors

Solution: Use `--fix` to auto-correct format issues.

Examples

Run ESLint on the project

npm run lint

Run linting using Yarn

yarn lint
