11## Getting Started
12
13- **[You can find our Getting Started docs here](../../docs/getting-started/linting/README.md)**
14- **[You can find our FAQ / Troubleshooting docs here](../../docs/getting-started/linting/FAQ.md)**
15
16These docs walk you through setting up ESLint, this plugin, and our parser. If you know what you're doing and just want to quick start, read on...
17
18## Quick-start
19
20### Installation
21
22Make sure you have TypeScript and [`@typescript-eslint/parser`](../parser) installed:
23
24```bash
25$ yarn add -D typescript @typescript-eslint/parser
26$ npm i --save-dev typescript @typescript-eslint/parser
27```
28
29Then install the plugin:
30
31```bash
32$ yarn add -D @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin
33$ npm i --save-dev @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin
34```
35
36It is important that you use the same version number for `@typescript-eslint/parser` and `@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin`.
37
38**Note:** If you installed ESLint globally (using the `-g` flag) then you must also install `@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin` globally.
39
40### Usage
41
42Add `@typescript-eslint/parser` to the `parser` field and `@typescript-eslint` to the plugins section of your `.eslintrc` configuration file, then configure the rules you want to use under the rules section.
43
44```json
45{
46 "parser": "@typescript-eslint/parser",
47 "plugins": ["@typescript-eslint"],
48 "rules": {
49 "@typescript-eslint/rule-name": "error"
50 }
51}
52```
53
54You can also enable all the recommended rules for our plugin. Add `plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended` in extends:
55
56```json
57{
58 "extends": ["plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended"]
59}
60```
61
62**Note: Make sure to use `eslint --ext .js,.ts` since by [default](https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/command-line-interface#--ext) `eslint` will only search for `.js` files.**
63
64### Recommended Configs
65
66You can also use [`eslint:recommended`](https://eslint.org/docs/rules/) (the set of rules which are recommended for all projects by the ESLint Team) with this plugin:
67
68```json
69{
70 "extends": ["eslint:recommended", "plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended"]
71}
72```
73
74As of version 2 of this plugin, _by design_, none of the rules in the main `recommended` config require type-checking in order to run. This means that they are more lightweight and faster to run.
75
76Some highly valuable rules simply require type-checking in order to be implemented correctly, however, so we provide an additional config you can extend from called `recommended-requiring-type-checking`. You would apply this _in addition_ to the recommended configs previously mentioned, e.g.:
77
78```json
79{
80 "extends": [
81 "eslint:recommended",
82 "plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended",
83 "plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended-requiring-type-checking"
84 ]
85}
86```
87
88Pro Tip: For larger codebases you may want to consider splitting our linting into two separate stages: 1. fast feedback rules which operate purely based on syntax (no type-checking), 2. rules which are based on semantics (type-checking).

180### Extension Rules
181
182In some cases, ESLint provides a rule itself, but it doesn't support TypeScript syntax; either it crashes, or it ignores the syntax, or it falsely reports against it.
183In these cases, we create what we call an extension rule; a rule within our plugin that has the same functionality, but also supports TypeScript.
