ESLint v10.2.0 released

2026-04-03T00:00:00Z

Highlights

Language-aware rules

ESLint v10.2.0 adds support for language-aware rules through the new meta.languages property. Rule authors can now explicitly declare which languages a rule supports, and ESLint will throw a runtime error if that rule is enabled for an unsupported language, as specified by the language configuration option.

Here is an example of a rule that only supports the JavaScript language:

const rule = {
    meta: {
        type: "problem",
        docs: {
            description: "Example JavaScript rule",
        },
        languages: ["js/js"],
    },
    create(context) {
        return {};
    },
};

Currently, none of the ESLint built-in rules restrict the languages they are designed to work with, but this may change in the future.

More information about the meta.languages property can be found in the custom rules documentation.

`Temporal` support

With the Temporal proposal now at TC39 stage 4, ESLint v10.2.0 recognizes Temporal as a built-in global. As a result, the no-undef rule no longer flags Temporal under the default configuration:

/* eslint no-undef: "error" */

const now = Temporal.Now.instant(); // OK

In addition, the no-obj-calls rule now reports direct calls to the global Temporal object:

/* eslint no-obj-calls: "error" */

Temporal(); // Error: 'Temporal' is not a function.

ESLint v10.1.0 released

2026-03-20T00:00:00Z

Highlights

API Support for Bulk Suppressions

ESLint v10.1.0 introduces API support for the bulk suppressions feature that was previously only available in the CLI.

ESLint API consumers, such as IDEs, can now pass the applySuppressions: true option to the ESLint constructor. With this option, suppressions from the suppressions file are automatically applied to results from ESLint#lintFiles() and ESLint#lintText() methods.

const eslint = new ESLint({
  applySuppressions: true,

  // optional, defaults to `eslint-suppressions.json`
  suppressionsLocation: "./config/my-suppressions.json",
});

ESLint v10.0.0 released

2026-02-06T00:00:00Z

Highlights

ESLint v10.0.0 is a major release that includes several new features and breaking changes. Here are some of the most notable updates.

Installing

Because this is a major release, you may not automatically be upgraded by npm. To ensure you are using this version, run:

npm i eslint@10.0.0 --save-dev
1

Node.js < v20.19.0, v21.x, v23.x no longer supported

As of this post, Node.js v24.x is the LTS release, and as such we are dropping support for all versions of Node.js prior to v20.19.0 as well as v21.x and v23.x.

Migration Guide

As there are a lot of changes, we’ve created a migration guide describing the breaking changes in great detail along with the steps you should take to address them. We expect that most users should be able to upgrade without any build changes, but the migration guide should be a useful resource if you encounter problems.

New configuration file lookup algorithm

ESLint v10.0.0 locates eslint.config.* by starting from the directory of each linted file rather than the current working directory as was the case with ESLint v9.x. The new behavior allows for using multiple configuration files in the same run and can be particularly useful in monorepo setups.

In ESLint v9.x, this config lookup behavior could be enabled with the v10_config_lookup_from_file feature flag. In ESLint v10.0.0, this behavior is now the default and the v10_config_lookup_from_file flag has been removed.

Removed eslintrc functionality

As announced in Flat config rollout plans, the eslintrc config system has been completely removed in ESLint v10.0.0. Specifically, this means:

The ESLINT_USE_FLAT_CONFIG environment variable is no longer honored.
The CLI no longer supports eslintrc-specific arguments (--no-eslintrc, --env, --resolve-plugins-relative-to, --rulesdir, --ignore-path).
.eslintrc.* and .eslintignore files will no longer be honored.
/* eslint-env */ comments are reported as errors.
The loadESLint() function now always returns the ESLint class.
The Linter constructor configType argument can only be "flat" and will throw an error if "eslintrc" is passed.
The following Linter eslintrc-specific methods are removed:
- defineParser()
- defineRule()
- defineRules()
- getRules()
The following changes to the /use-at-your-own-risk entrypoint:
- LegacyESLint is removed
- FileEnumerator is removed
- shouldUseFlatConfig() function will always return true

JSX references are now tracked

ESLint v10.0.0 now tracks JSX references, enabling correct scope analysis of JSX elements.

Previously, JSX identifiers weren’t tracked as references, which could lead to incorrect results in rules relying on scope information. For example:

import { Card } from "./card.jsx";

export function createCard(name) {
  return <Card name={name} />;
}
1
2
3
4
5

Prior to v10.0.0:

False positives: <Card> could be reported as “defined but never used” (no-unused-vars).
False negatives: Removing the import might not trigger an “undefined variable” error (no-undef).

Starting with v10.0.0, <Card> is treated as a normal reference to the variable in scope. This eliminates confusing false positives/negatives, aligns JSX handling with developer expectations, and improves the linting experience in projects using JSX.

Espree and ESLint Scope now include types

Beginning with Espree v11.1.0 and ESLint Scope v9.1.0, these packages now contain built-in type definitions.

Previously, type definitions were provided by Definitely Typed packages @types/espree and @types/eslint-scope. There are several differences between the old and new type definitions, mostly bug fixes. If your code relies on types for the Espree and ESLint Scope packages, check if there are any updates needed.

Enhancements to `RuleTester`

Since its earliest days, ESLint has provided the RuleTester API to help plugin authors test their rules against custom test cases and configurations. This release introduces several enhancements to RuleTester to enforce more robust test definitions and improve debugging.

Assertion options

The RuleTester#run() method now supports assertion options, specifically requireMessage, requireLocation, and requireData, to let developers enforce stricter requirements in rule tests. These options enforce that every invalid test case explicitly checks violation messages, locations, and data, ensuring that a test fails if it doesn’t meet the requirements.

requireMessage
- Ensures every test case includes a message check.
- Accepts:
  - true: Must use an array of objects for errors, rather than a numeric count shorthand, to check the problems reported by a rule. Each object must include a message or messageId property as usual to check the message of a reported problem.
  - "message": Must check using message only.
  - "messageId": Must check using messageId only.
- Purpose: Prevents tests from passing without verifying the actual message.
requireLocation
- Ensures every test case includes a location check.
- Accepts: true
- Requires line and column in each object of the errors array.
- endLine and endColumn are optional if the actual report doesn’t include them.
- Purpose: Guarantees that tests validate the location of an error.
requireData
- Ensures every test case includes a data check.
- Accepts: true
- When set to true, RuleTester will require invalid test cases to include a data object whenever a messageId references a message with placeholders. This helps ensure that tests remain consistent with rule messages that rely on placeholder substitution.

Example Usage:

ruleTester.run("my-rule", rule, {
  valid: [
    { code: "var foo = true;" }
  ],
  invalid: [
    {
      code: "var invalidVariable = true;",
      errors: [
        { message: "Unexpected invalid variable.", line: 1, column: 5 }
      ]
    }
  ],
  assertionOptions: {
    requireMessage: true,
    requireLocation: true
  }
});

Improved location reporting for failing tests

RuleTester now decorates stack traces with information that makes it easier to locate failing test cases in your source code. For example, the test output will now include stack trace lines indicating the index of the failing test case in the invalid array and the file and line number where that test case is defined.

Note that these line numbers may not always be included, depending on how your tests are structured. When the lines cannot be determined precisely, the failing test index and the printed code snippet are still available to locate the test case.

`countThis` option in `max-params` rule

The max-params rule now supports the new countThis option, which supersedes the deprecated countVoidThis. With the setting countThis: "never", the rule will now ignore any this annotation in a function’s argument list when counting the number of parameters in a TypeScript function. For example:

function doSomething(this: SomeType, first: string, second: number) {
 // ...
}
1
2
3

will be considered a function taking only 2 parameters.

`color` property in formatter context

When the --color or --no-color option is specified on the command line, ESLint sets an additional color property on the context object passed to a formatter (the second argument of the format() method). This property is true for --color and false for --no-color. Custom formatters can use this value to determine whether to apply color styling, based on the assumption that the terminal supports or does not support colors as indicated by the option.

Updated `eslint:recommended`

The eslint:recommended configuration is updated to include new rules that we feel are important.

Removed deprecated rule `context` members

The following rule context members are no longer available:

context.getCwd() - Use context.cwd instead
context.getFilename() - Use context.filename instead
context.getPhysicalFilename() - Use context.physicalFilename instead
context.getSourceCode() - Use context.sourceCode instead
context.parserOptions - Use context.languageOptions or context.languageOptions.parserOptions instead
context.parserPath - No replacement

Removed deprecated `SourceCode` methods

The following SourceCode methods are no longer available:

getTokenOrCommentBefore() - Use getTokenBefore() with the { includeComments: true } option instead
getTokenOrCommentAfter() - Use getTokenAfter() with the { includeComments: true } option instead
isSpaceBetweenTokens() - Use isSpaceBetween() instead
getJSDocComment() - No replacement

`Program` AST node range spans entire source text

Starting with ESLint v10.0.0, Program AST node’s range spans the entire source text. Previously, leading and trailing comments/whitespace were not included in the range.

Jiti < v2.2.0 no longer supported

ESLint v10.0.0 drops support for jiti versions prior to 2.2.0 when loading TypeScript configuration files due to known issues that can cause compatibility problems when configurations load certain plugins.

ESLint v10.0.0-rc.2 released

2026-01-27T00:00:00Z

Highlights

This version of ESLint is not ready for production use and is provided to gather feedback from the community before releasing the final version. Please let us know if you have any problems or feedback by creating issues on our GitHub repo.

Note that this prerelease version of ESLint has a separate documentation section.

Notable bug fixes

A regression in the core strict rule has been fixed.
LegacyESLint and FlatESLint exports are now completely removed from the /use-at-your-own-risk entrypoint. In previous prerelease versions of ESLint v10, they were exported as null.

Installing

Since this is a pre-release version, you will not automatically be upgraded by npm. You must specify the next tag when installing:

npm i eslint@next --save-dev
1

You can also specify the version directly:

npm i eslint@10.0.0-rc.2 --save-dev
1
