  • Monorepo support
  • GritQL Plugins
  • Revamped, configurable import sorting
  • Linter domains
  • Bulk suppressions
  • Analyzer assists
  • Many new lint rules

Congrats to the devs. Biome is awesome, and it’s been a pleasure to use it

What is the use case for linting typescript where tsc is unavailable? To avoid tsc compilation time if possible?

[-] arendjr@programming.dev 4 points 3 days ago

tsc is (very) slow and there are also no convenient ways to interact with it from Rust.

So it saves a lot development and CI time to roll our own. The downside is that our inference still isn’t as good as tsc of course, but we’re hopeful the community can help us get very close at least.

Makes sense. Reminds me of running ruff before the (very) slow type checker on my python projects.
