Linting in Plane - How It Works

We use OxLint for linting across the entire monorepo. OxLint is a single Rust binary that's 50-100x faster than ESLint, with zero Node.js dependencies at runtime.

Key Points

Single Root Config - One .oxlintrc.json at the repo root handles all packages and apps
No Build Required - OxLint doesn't need TypeScript build artifacts, so lint runs independently of build
Plugin Coverage - react, typescript, jsx-a11y, import, promise, unicorn, oxc

How to Run

From the root of the repo:

# Check for lint errors
pnpm check:lint

# Auto-fix lint errors
pnpm fix:lint

To lint a specific package:

pnpm turbo run check:lint --filter=@plane/ui

VS Code Integration

Install the OxLint extension for inline errors/warnings as you type.

What Gets Linted

The config applies to all TypeScript and JavaScript files across:

apps/web, apps/admin, apps/space, apps/live
All packages in packages/

Ignored paths:

node_modules/, dist/, build/, .next/, .turbo/
Config files (*.config.{js,mjs,cjs,ts})
Public folders, coverage, storybook-static

Rules Overview

OxLint uses category-based configuration:

Category	Level	What It Catches
correctness	error	Real bugs that will cause runtime errors
suspicious	warn	Code patterns that are likely mistakes
perf	warn	Performance anti-patterns

Additional rule overrides:

react/prop-types off (TypeScript handles prop validation)
no-unused-vars warns with _ prefix pattern ignored
Several noisy unicorn rules disabled

Backward Compatibility

OxLint supports eslint-disable comments, so existing inline suppressions continue to work.

Suppressing Warnings

// Single line
// eslint-disable-next-line no-unused-vars
const data = response;

// Block
/* eslint-disable no-unused-vars */
// ... code
/* eslint-enable no-unused-vars */

Please use sparingly - most warnings indicate real issues that should be fixed.

Pre-commit Hook

Lint-staged runs automatically on commit via Husky:

oxfmt formats your staged files
OxLint fixes what it can (with --deny-warnings)

If the commit fails due to lint errors, fix them before committing.
