Package description
The 'standard' npm package is a JavaScript style guide, linter, and formatter all in one. It enforces a consistent coding style without the need for configuration, making it easier to maintain code quality across projects.
Linting
Linting is the process of running a program that will analyze code for potential errors. The 'standard' package provides a zero-configuration linter that checks for style and programming errors.
npx standardAuto-fixing
The 'standard' package can automatically fix some of the issues it finds in your code. This feature helps in maintaining code quality by automatically correcting common style and formatting issues.
npx standard --fixIntegration with Editors
The 'standard' package can be integrated with various code editors like VSCode, Sublime Text, and Atom. This allows for real-time linting and auto-fixing as you write code.
/* Example for VSCode */
{
"editor.formatOnSave": true,
"javascript.validate.enable": false,
"standard.enable": true
}ESLint is a highly configurable linter for JavaScript and JSX. Unlike 'standard', which comes with a predefined set of rules, ESLint allows you to define your own rules or extend from popular style guides like Airbnb or Google.
Prettier is an opinionated code formatter that supports many languages. It focuses on code formatting rather than linting. While 'standard' includes both linting and formatting, Prettier is often used in conjunction with ESLint for a more comprehensive solution.
XO is a JavaScript linter with great defaults and minimal configuration. It is similar to 'standard' in that it aims to provide a zero-config experience, but it also allows for some customization and extends ESLint under the hood.
Changelog
[11.0.0] - 2018-02-18
This release has no new rules, but it does update to the latest version of eslint,
version 4, which has some significant changes to existing rules. Most updates make
the indentation rules more strict.
Thankfully, most users will just need to run standard --fix to update code to be
compliant.

Readme
npm install standard
The easiest way to use standard is to install it globally as a Node command line
program. To do so, simply run the following command in your terminal (flag -g installs
standard globally on your system, omit it if you want to install in the current working
directory):
npm install standard -g
After you've done that you should be able to use the standard program. The simplest use
case would be checking the style of all JavaScript files in the current working directory:
$ standard
Error: Code style check failed:
/Users/feross/code/webtorrent/lib/torrent.js:950:11: Expected '===' and instead saw '=='.
package.json{

}
}
npm test$ npm test
