Lightning-fast JavaScript Standard Style linting and formatting ⚡

Drop-in replacement for ESLint/Prettier that’s 50~100 times faster. Enforces JavaScript Standard Style using Rust-based oxlint and oxfmt formatter for TypeScript/React projects.

🚀 Quick Setup

For Node.js Projects

Replace ESLint/Prettier in your project with one command:

npx JohnDeved/ox-standard

That’s it! The setup automatically:

• ✅ Removes ESLint and Prettier packages and configs
• ✅ Installs oxlint with Standard Style configuration
• ✅ Installs oxfmt formatter with Standard Style configuration
• ✅ Updates your package.json scripts
• ✅ Configures VSCode settings and extensions

For Deno Projects

Run the setup in your Deno project directory:

npx JohnDeved/ox-standard

The setup will:

• ✅ Detect your Deno project automatically
• ✅ Create .oxlintrc.json with Deno-specific configuration
• ✅ Create .oxfmtrc.json with Standard Style formatting
• ✅ Add lint task to your deno.json
• ✅ Configure VSCode settings and extensions

Then install oxlint and oxfmt:

# Using npx (recommended)
npx oxlint --fix .
npx oxfmt .

# Or install globally with Deno
deno install -A -n oxlint https://esm.sh/oxlint
deno install -A -n oxfmt https://esm.sh/oxfmt

✨ What You Get

🚀 100x Faster Performance

• Rust-based oxlint: Sub-second linting even on large codebases
• oxfmt formatter: Lightning-fast formatting from the oxc ecosystem
• Single command: npm run lint (Node.js) or deno task lint (Deno) handles both linting and formatting

📏 JavaScript Standard Style Enforced

• No semicolons, single quotes, 2-space indentation
• Strict equality (===), modern ES6+ patterns
• React hooks best practices, TypeScript consistency

🎯 Zero Configuration

• Works out of the box for TypeScript and React
• Supports both Node.js and Deno projects
• Extensible configs you can customize
• VSCode integration with recommended extensions

🛠 Customization

Need to override rules? Easy:

// .oxlintrc.json
{
  "extends": ["./node_modules/ox-standard/.oxlintrc.json"],
  "rules": {
    "no-console": "warn"
  }
}

// .oxfmtrc.json  
{
  "singleQuote": true,
  "semi": false,
  "printWidth": 120,
  "tabWidth": 2,
  "trailingComma": "es5"
}

💡 VSCode Integration

The setup automatically configures VSCode for the best experience:

• Auto-formatting on save with oxfmt via the oxc-vscode extension
• Auto-fixing linting issues on save
• Recommended extensions installation prompt

The .vscode/settings.json is configured to use oxc-vscode as the default formatter with experimental oxfmt support enabled. Just install the recommended oxc.oxc-vscode extension when prompted, and formatting will work out of the box!

🆚 Migrating from ESLint/Prettier?

The setup script handles everything automatically:

1. Detects existing ESLint/Prettier configs and packages
2. Prompts for removal confirmation
3. Uninstalls old dependencies
4. Installs and configures ox-standard
5. Updates VSCode settings

📖 Manual Installation

Node.js Projects

Prefer manual setup?

npm install --save-dev github:JohnDeved/ox-standard

echo '{"extends": ["./node_modules/ox-standard/.oxlintrc.json"]}' > .oxlintrc.json
cp node_modules/ox-standard/.oxfmtrc.json .oxfmtrc.json

npm pkg set scripts.lint="oxlint --fix .; oxfmt ."

Deno Projects

For Deno projects, configuration is embedded directly:

# Run setup script
npx JohnDeved/ox-standard

# Or manually create configs
# The setup script will generate .oxlintrc.json with Deno-specific settings
# including Deno global environment and optimized ignore patterns

# Add to deno.json:
{
  "tasks": {
    "lint": "npx oxlint --fix . && npx oxfmt ."
  }
}

# Run linting
deno task lint
