-
noRedeclare no longer panics on conditional type (#2659).
This is a regression introduced by #2394. This regression makes
noRedeclare
panics on every conditional types withinfer
bindings.Contributed by @Conaclos

-
Import sorting now ignores side effect imports (#817).
A side effect import consists now in its own group. This ensures that side effect imports are not reordered.
Here is an example of how imports are now sorted:
import "z" - import { D } from "d"; import { C } from "c"; + import { D } from "d"; import "y" import "x" - import { B } from "b"; import { A } from "a"; + import { B } from "b"; import "w"
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Import sorting now adds spaces where needed (#1665) Contributed by @Conaclos
-
biome migrate eslint
now handles cyclic references.Some plugins and configurations export objects with cyclic references. This causes
biome migrate eslint
to fail or ignore them. These edge cases are now handled correctly.Contributed by @Conaclos
- Correctly handle placement of comments inside named import clauses. #2566. Contributed by @ah-yu
-
Add nursery/noReactSpecificProps. Contributed by @marvin-j97
-
Add noUselessUndefinedInitialization. Contributed by @lutaok

-
noDuplicateJsonKeys no longer crashes when a JSON file contains an unterminated string (#2357). Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noRedeclare now reports redeclarations of parameters in a functions body (#2394).
The rule was unable to detect redeclarations of a parameter or a type parameter in the function body. The following two redeclarations are now reported:
function f<T>(a) { type T = number; // redeclaration const a = 0; // redeclaration }
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noRedeclare no longer reports overloads in object types (#2608).
The rule no longer report redeclarations in the following code:
type Overloads = { ({ a }: { a: number }): number, ({ a }: { a: string }): string, };
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noRedeclare now merge default function export declarations and types (#2372).
The following code is no longer reported as a redeclaration:
interface Foo {} export default function Foo() {}
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUndeclaredVariables no longer reports variable-only and type-only exports (#2637). Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUnusedVariables no longer crash Biome when encountering a malformed conditional type (#1695). Contributed by @Conaclos
-
useConst now ignores a variable that is read before its assignment.
Previously, the rule reported the following example:
let x; x; // read x = 0; // write
It is now correctly ignored.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
useShorthandFunctionType now suggests correct code fixes when parentheses are required (#2595).
Previously, the rule didn't add parentheses when they were needed. It now adds parentheses when the function signature is inside an array, a union, or an intersection.
- type Union = { (): number } | string; + type Union = (() => number) | string;
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
useTemplate now correctly escapes strings (#2580).
Previously, the rule didn't correctly escape characters preceded by an escaped character.
Contributed by @Conaclos

expect.any()
expect.anything()
expect.closeTo
expect.arrayContaining
expect.objectContaining
expect.stringContaining
expect.stringMatching
expect.extend
expect.addEqualityTesters
expect.addSnapshotSerializer
Contributed by @fujiyamaorange
-
The language parsers no longer panic on unterminated strings followed by a newline and a space (#2606, #2410).
The following example is now parsed without making Biome panics:
" "
Contributed by @Conaclos
- Fix #2403 by printing the errors in the client console. Contributed by @ematipico

jsxRuntime
wasn't being respected byuseImportType
rule (#2473).Contributed by @arendjr - Fix #2460, where the rule
noUselessFragments
was crashing the linter in some cases. Now cases like these are correctly handled:Contributed by @ematipicocallFunction(<>{bar}</>)
- Fix #2366, where
noDuplicateJsonKeys
incorrectly computed the kes to highlight. Contributed by @ematipico
- The rule
noMisplacedAssertions
now considers valid callingexpect
insidewaitFor
:Contributed by @ematipicoimport { waitFor } from '@testing-library/react'; await waitFor(() => { expect(111).toBe(222); });
-
Now Biome can detect the script language in Svelte and Vue script blocks more reliably (#2245). Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
useExhaustiveDependencies
no longer reports recursive calls as missing dependencies (#2361). Contributed by @arendjr -
useExhaustiveDependencies
correctly reports missing dependencies declared using function declarations (#2362). Contributed by @arendjr -
Biome now can handle
.svelte
and.vue
files withCRLF
as the end-of-line sequence. Contributed by @Sec-ant -
noMisplacedAssertion
no longer reports method calls bydescribe
,test
,it
objects (e.g.test.each([])()
) (#2443). Contributed by @unvalley. -
Biome now can handle
.vue
files with generic components (#2456).<script generic="T extends Record<string, any>" lang="ts" setup> //... </script>
Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
Complete the well-known file lists for JSON-like files. Trailing commas are allowed in
.jsonc
files by default. Some well-known files liketsconfig.json
and.babelrc
don't use the.jsonc
extension but still allow comments and trailing commas. While others, such as.eslintrc.json
, only allow comments. Biome is able to identify these files and adjusts thejson.parser.allowTrailingCommas
option accordingly to ensure they are correctly parsed. Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Fix dedent logic inconsistent with prettier where the indent-style is space and the indent-width is not 2. Contributed by @mdm317
-
Add a command to migrate from ESLint
biome migrate eslint
allows you to migrate an ESLint configuration to Biome. The command supports legacy ESLint configurations and new flat ESLint configurations. Legacy ESLint configurations using the YAML format are not supported.When loading a legacy ESLint configuration, Biome resolves the
extends
field. It resolves both shared configurations and plugin presets! To do this, it invokes Node.js.Biome relies on the metadata of its rules to determine the equivalent rule of an ESLint rule. A Biome rule is either inspired or roughly identical to an ESLint rules. By default, inspired and nursery rules are excluded from the migration. You can use the CLI flags
--include-inspired
and--include-nursery
to migrate them as well.Note that this is a best-effort approach. You are not guaranteed to get the same behavior as ESLint.
Given the following ESLint configuration:
{ "ignore_patterns": ["**/*.test.js"], "globals": { "var2": "readonly" }, "rules": { "eqeqeq": "error" }, "overrides": [{ "files": ["lib/*.js"], "rules": { "default-param-last": "off" } }] }
biome migrate eslint --write
changes the Biome configuration as follows:{ "linter": { "rules": { "recommended": false, "suspicious": { "noDoubleEquals": "error" } } }, "javascript": { "globals": ["var2"] }, "overrides": [{ "include": ["lib/*.js"], "linter": { "rules": { "style": { "useDefaultParameterLast": "off" } } } }] }
Also, if the working directory contains
.eslintignore
, then Biome migrates the glob patterns. Nested.eslintignore
in subdirectories and negated glob patterns are not supported.If you find any issue, please don't hesitate to report them.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Added two new options to customise the emitted output of the CLI:
--reporter=json
and--reporter=json-pretty
. With--reporter=json
, the diagnostics and the summary will be printed in the terminal in JSON format. With--reporter=json-pretty
, you can print the same information, but formatted using the same options of your configuration.NOTE: the shape of the JSON is considered experimental, and the shape of the JSON might change in the future.
Example of output when running `biome format` command
```json { "summary": { "changed": 0, "unchanged": 1, "errors": 1, "warnings": 0, "skipped": 0, "suggestedFixesSkipped": 0, "diagnosticsNotPrinted": 0 }, "diagnostics": [ { "category": "format", "severity": "error", "description": "Formatter would have printed the following content:", "message": [ { "elements": [], "content": "Formatter would have printed the following content:" } ], "advices": { "advices": [ { "diff": { "dictionary": " statement();\n", "ops": [ { "diffOp": { "delete": { "range": [0, 2] } } }, { "diffOp": { "equal": { "range": [2, 12] } } }, { "diffOp": { "delete": { "range": [0, 2] } } }, { "diffOp": { "equal": { "range": [12, 13] } } }, { "diffOp": { "delete": { "range": [0, 2] } } }, { "diffOp": { "insert": { "range": [13, 15] } } } ] } } ] }, "verboseAdvices": { "advices": [] }, "location": { "path": { "file": "format.js" }, "span": null, "sourceCode": null }, "tags": [], "source": null } ], "command": "format" } ``` -
Added new
--staged
flag to thecheck
,format
andlint
subcommands.This new option allows users to apply the command only to the files that are staged (the ones that will be committed), which can be very useful to simplify writing git hook scripts such as
pre-commit
. Contributed by @castarco
-
Improve support of
.prettierignore
when migrating from PrettierNow, Biome translates most of the glob patterns in
.prettierignore
to the equivalent Biome ignore pattern. Only negated glob patterns are not supported.Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Support JavaScript configuration files when migrating from Prettier
biome migrate prettier
is now able to migrate Prettier configuration files ending withjs
,mjs
, orcjs
extensions. To do this, Biome invokes Node.js.Also, embedded Prettier configurations in
package.json
are now supported.Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Support
overrides
field in Prettier configuration files when migrating from Prettier. Contributed by @Conaclos -
Support passing a file path to the
--config-path
flag or theBIOME_CONFIG_PATH
environment variable.Now you can pass a
.json
/.jsonc
file path with any filename to the--config-path
flag or theBIOME_CONFIG_PATH
environment variable. This will disable the configuration auto-resolution and Biome will try to read the configuration from the said file path (#2265).biome format --config-path=../biome.json ./src
Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
Biome now tags the diagnostics emitted by
organizeImports
andformatter
with correct severity levels, so they will be properly filtered by the flag--diagnostic-level
(#2288). Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Biome now correctly filters out files that are not present in the current directory when using the
--changed
flag #1996. Contributed by @castarco -
Biome now skips traversing
fifo
orsocket
files (#2311). Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Biome now resolves configuration files exported from external libraries in
extends
from the working directory (CLI) or project root (LSP). This is the documented behavior and previous resolution behavior is considered as a bug (#2231). Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
Now setting group level
all
tofalse
can disable recommended rules from that group when top levelrecommended
istrue
or unset. Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Biome configuration files can correctly extends
.jsonc
configuration files now (#2279). Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Fixed the JSON schema for React hooks configuration (#2396). Contributed by @arendjr
-
Biome now displays the location of a parsing error for its configuration file (#1627).
Previously, when Biome encountered a parsing error in its configuration file, it didn't indicate the location of the error. It now displays the name of the configuration file and the range where the error occurred.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
options
is no longer required for rules without any options (#2313).Previously, the JSON schema required to set
options
tonull
when an object is used to set the diagnostic level of a rule without any option. However, ifoptions
is set tonull
, Biome emits an error.The schema is now fixed and it no longer requires specifying
options
. This makes the following configuration valid:{ "linter": { "rules": { "style": { "noDefaultExport": { "level": "off" } } } } }
Contributed by @Conaclos
- Biome extension is now able to parse the JSX syntax in files that associated with the
javascript
language identifier. This is an ad hoc fix, because in the React world,.js
files are allowed to include JSX syntax, and these files are often associated with thejavascript
language identifier in most of the editors. Plus, some editor extensions will also associate.jsx
files with thejavascript
language identifier. Relative links: discussion, #2085. Contributed by @Sec-ant
- Fix #2291 by correctly handle comment placement for JSX spread attributes and JSX spread children. Contributed by @ah-yu
New rules are incubated in the nursery group. Once stable, we promote them to a stable group. The following rules are promoted:
- complecity/noExcessiveNestedTestSuites
- complexity/noUselessTernary
- correctness/useJsxKeyInIterable
- performance/noBarrelFile
- performance/noReExportAll
- style/noNamespaceImport
- style/useNodeAssertStrict
- suspicious/noDuplicateTestHooks
- suspicious/noExportsInTest
- suspicious/noFocusedTests
- suspicious/noSkippedTests
- suspicious/noSuspiciousSemicolonInJsx
-
Add a new option
jsxRuntime
to thejavascript
configuration. When set toreactClassic
, the noUnusedImports and useImportType rules use this information to make exceptions for the React global that is required by the React Classic JSX transform.This is only necessary for React users who haven't upgraded to the new JSX transform.
Contributed by @Conaclos and @arendjr
-
Implement #2043: The React rule
useExhaustiveDependencies
is now also compatible with Preact hooks imported frompreact/hooks
orpreact/compat
. Contributed by @arendjr -
Add rule noFlatMapIdentity to disallow unnecessary callback use on
flatMap
. Contributed by @isnakode -
Add rule noConstantMathMinMaxClamp, which disallows using
Math.min
andMath.max
to clamp a value where the result itself is constant. Contributed by @mgomulak
-
style/useFilenamingConvention now allows prefixing a filename with
+
(#2341).This is a convention used by Sveltekit and Vike.
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
style/useNamingConvention now accepts
PascalCase
for local and top-level variables.This allows supporting local variables that hold a component or a regular class. The following code is now accepted:
function loadComponent() { const Component = getComponent(); return <Component />; }
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
complexity/useLiteralKeys no longer report computed properties named
__proto__
(#2430).In JavaScript,
{["__proto__"]: null}
and{__proto__: null}
have not the same semantic. The first code set a regular property tonull
. The second one set the prototype of the object tonull
. See the MDN Docs for more details.The rule now ignores computed properties named
__proto__
.Contributed by @Conaclos
-
Lint rules
useNodejsImportProtocol
,useNodeAssertStrict
,noRestrictedImports
,noNodejsModules
will no longer checkdeclare module
statements anymore. Contributed by @Sec-ant -
style/useNamingConvention now accepts any case for variables from object destructuring (#2332).
The following name is now ignored:
const { Strange_Style } = obj;
Previously, the rule renamed this variable. This led to a runtime error.
Contributed by @Conaclos

Contributed by @ematipico
-
Fix configuration resolution. Biome is now able to correctly find the
biome.jsonc
configuration file when--config-path
is explicitly set (#2164). Contributed by @Sec-ant -
JavaScript/TypeScript files of different variants (
.ts
,.js
,.tsx
,.jsx
) in a single workspace now have stable formatting behaviors when running the CLI command in paths of different nested levels or in different operating systems (#2080, #2109). Contributed by @Sec-ant

-
The
noSuperWithoutExtends
rule now allows for callingsuper()
in derived class constructors of class expressions (#2108). Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Fix discrepancies on file source detection. Allow module syntax in
.cts
files (#2114). Contributed by @Sec-ant

Smoother handling of
"endOfLine": "auto"
in prettier migration: falling back to"lf"
(#2145). Contributed by @eMerzh
- Fix enabled rules calculation. The precendence of individual rules,
all
andrecommend
presets in top-level and group-level configs is now correctly respected. More details can be seen in (#2072) (#2028). Contributed by @Sec-ant

Rule
noUndeclaredDependencies
now also validatespeerDependencies
andoptionalDependencies
(#2122). Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Rule
noUndeclaredDependencies
won't checkdeclare module
statements anymore (#2123). Contributed by @Sec-ant -
Fix #1925. The fix for
useOptionalChain
would sometimes suggest an incorrect fix that discarded optional chaining operators on the left-hand side of logical expressions. These are now preserved. Contributed by @arendjr -
Rule

beforeEach(done => { // ... });
-
useJsxKeyInIterable now recognizes function bodies wrapped in parentheses (#2011). Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
useShorthandFunctionType now preserves type parameters of generic interfaces when applying fixes (#2015). Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
Code fixes of useImportType and useExportType now handle multiline statements (#2041). Contributed by @Conaclos

noRedeclare no longer reports type parameter and parameter with identical names (#1992).
The following code is no longer reported:
function f<a>(a: a) {}
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noRedeclare now reports duplicate type parameters in a same declaration.
The following type parameters are now reported as a redeclaration:
function f<T, T>() {}
Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUndeclaredDependencies now recognizes imports of subpath exports.
E.g., the following import statements no longer report errors if
@mui/material
andtailwindcss
are installed as dependencies:import Button from "@mui/material/Button"; import { fontFamily } from "tailwindcss/defaultTheme";
Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
JavaScript lexer is now able to lex regular expression literals with escaped non-ascii chars (#1941).
Contributed by @Sec-ant
-
Add partial for
.astro
files. Biome is able to sort imports inside the frontmatter of the Astro files. Contributed by @ematipico--- - import { getLocale } from "astro:i18n"; - import { Code } from "astro:components"; + import { Code } from "astro:components"; + import { getLocale } from "astro:i18n"; --- <div></div>
-
Add partial for
.vue
files. Biome is able to sort imports inside the script block of Vue files. Contributed by @nhedger<script setup lang="ts"> - import Button from "./components/Button.vue"; - import * as vueUse from "vue-use"; + import * as vueUse from "vue-use"; + import Button from "./components/Button.vue"; </script/> <template></template>
-
Add partial for
.svelte
files. Biome is able to sort imports inside the script block of Svelte files.

-
The analyzer now infers the correct quote from
javascript.formatter.quoteStyle
, if set. This means that code fixes suggested by the analyzer will use the same quote of the formatter. Contributed by @ematipico
-
noUnusedVariables ignores unused rest spread siblings.
The following code is now valid:
const { a, ...rest } = { a: 0, b: 1 }; console.log(rest);
Contributed by @ah-yu
-
Fix #1931. Built-in React hooks such as
useEffect()
can now be validated by theuseExhaustiveDependendies
, even when they're not being imported from the React library. To do so, simply configure them like any other user-provided hooks.Contributed by @arendjr
-
Implemented #1128. User-provided React hooks can now be configured to track stable results. For example:
"useExhaustiveDependencies": { "level": "error", "options": { "hooks": [{ "name": "useMyState", "stableResult": [ 1 ] }] } }
This will allow the following to be validated:
const [myState, setMyState] = useMyState(); const toggleMyState = useCallback(() => { setMyState(!myState); }, [myState]); // Only `myState` needs to be specified here.
Contributed by @arendjr
-
Fix #1748. Now for the following case we won't provide an unsafe fix for the
noNonNullAssertion
rule:x[y.z!];
Contributed by @ah-yu
-
Imports that contain the protocol
:
are now sorted after thenpm:
modules, and before theURL
modules. Contributed by @ematipicoimport express from "npm:express"; - import Component from "./component.js" - import { sortBy } from "virtual:utils"; + import { sortBy } from "virtual:utils"; + import Component from "./component.js"

Fix #1081. The
useAwait
rule does not reportfor await...of
. Contributed by @unvalley -
Fix #1827 by properly analyzing nested
try-finally
statements. Contributed by @ah-yu -
Fix #1924 Use the correct export name to sort in the import clause. Contributed by @ah-yu
-
Fix #1805 fix formatting arrow function which has conditional expression body Contributed by @mdm317
-
Fix #1781 by avoiding the retrieval of the entire static member expression for the reference if the static member expression does not start with the reference. Contributed by @ah-yu
-
Add a new command
biome migrate prettier
. The command will read the file.prettierrc
/prettier.json
and.prettierignore
and map its configuration to Biome's one. Due to the different nature of.prettierignore
globs and Biome's globs, it's highly advised to make sure that those still work under Biome. -
Now the file name printed in the diagnostics is clickable. If you run the CLI from your editor, you can Ctrl/⌘ + Click on the file name, and the editor will open said file. If row and columns are specified e.g.
file.js:32:7
, the editor will set the cursor right in that position. Contributed by @ematipico -
Add an option
--linter
tobiome rage
. The option needs to check Biome linter configuration. Contributed by @seitarof -
Add an option
--formatter
tobiome rage
. The option needs to check Biome formatter configuration. Contributed by @seitarof -
The CLI now consistently reports the number of files tha were changed, out of the total files that were analysed. Contributed by @ematipico
-
The CLI now consistently shows the number of errors and warnings emitted. Contributed by @ematipico
-
Don't process files under an ignored directory.
Previously, Biome processed all files in the traversed hierarchy, even the files under an ignored directory. Now, it completely skips the content of ignored directories.
For now, directories cannot be ignored using
files.include
in the configuration file. This is a known limitation that we want to address in a future release.For instance, if you have a project with a folder
src
and a foldertest
, the following configuration doesn't completely ignoretest
.{ "files": { "include": ["src"] } }
Biome will traverse
test
, however all files of the directory are correctly ignored. This can result in file system errors, if Biome encounters dangling symbolic links or files with higher permissions.To avoid traversing the
test
directory, you should ignore the directory usingignore
:{ "files": { "include": ["src"], "ignore": ["test"] } }
-
Fix #1508 by excluding deleted files from being processed. Contributed by @ematipico
-
Fix #1173. Fix the formatting of a single instruction with commented in a control flow body to ensure consistency. Contributed by @mdm317
-
Fix overriding of
javascript.globals
. Contributed by @arendjr -
Fix a bug where syntax rules weren't run when pulling the diagnostics. Now Biome will emit more parsing diagnostics, e.g.
check.js:1:17 parse/noDuplicatePrivateClassMembers ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ × Duplicate private class member "#foo" > 1 │ class A { #foo; #foo } │ ^^^^
Contributed by @ematipico
-
Fix #1774 by taking into account the option
--no-errors-on-unmatched
when running the CLI using--changed
. Contributed by @antogyn
-
Removed a superfluous diagnostic that was printed during the linting/check phase of a file:
test.js check ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ × The file contains diagnostics that needs to be addressed.
Contributed by @ematipico
-
The command
format
now emits parsing diagnostics if there are any, and it will terminate with a non-zero exit code. Contributed by @ematipico
-
Add the ability to resolve the configuration files defined inside

composer.json
,deno.json
,jsconfig.json
,package.json
andtsconfig.json
are no longer protected files.This means that you can now format them.
If you want to ignore these files, you can use the files.ignore configuration:
{ "files": { "ignore": [ "composer.json", "jsconfig.json", "package.json", "tsconfig.json", "typescript.json", "deno.json", "deno.jsonc" ] } }
The following files are still protected, and thus ignored:

useNamingConvention now supports unicase letters (#1786).
unicase letters have a single case: they are neither uppercase nor lowercase. Previously, Biome reported names in unicase as invalid. It now accepts a name in unicase everywhere.

The fix of useArrowFunction now adds parentheses around the arrow function in more cases where it is needed (#1524).
A function expression doesn't need parentheses in most expressions where it can appear. This is not the case with the arrow function. We previously added parentheses when the function appears in a call or member expression. We now add parentheses in binary-like expressions and other cases where they are needed, hopefully covering all cases.

Fix #651, useExhaustiveDependencies no longer reports out of scope dependencies. Contributed by @kalleep
The following code is no longer reported:
let outer = false;
const Component = ({}) => {
useEffect(() => {
outer = true;
}, []);
}
Fix #1191. noUselessElse
now preserve comments of the else
clause. Contributed by @Conaclos
For example, the rule suggested the following fix:
function f(x) {
if (x <0) {
return 0;
}
- // Comment
- else {
return x;
- }
}
Now the rule suggests a fix that preserves the comment of the else
clause:
function f(x) {
if (x <0) {
return 0;
}
// Comment
- else {
return x;
- }
}
Fix #1383. noConfusingVoidType
now accepts the void
type in type parameter lists.
The rule no longer reports the following code:
f<void>();
Fix #728. useSingleVarDeclarator no longer outputs invalid code. Contributed by @Conaclos
Fix #1167. useValidAriaProps
no longer reports aria-atomic
as invalid. Contributed by @unvalley
Fix #1192. useTemplate now correctly handles parenthesized expressions and respects type coercions. Contributed by @n-gude
These cases are now properly handled:
"a" + (1 + 2) // `a${1 + 2}`
1 + (2 + "a") // `${1}${2}a`
Fix #1456. useTemplate now reports expressions with an interpolated template literal and non-string expressions. Contributed by @n-gude
The following code is now reported:
`a${1}` + 2;
Fix #1436. useArrowFunction now applies a correct fix when a function expression is used in a call expression or a member access. Contributed by @Conaclos
For example, the rule proposed the following fix:
- const called = function() {}();
+ const called = () => {}();
It now proposes a fix that adds the needed parentheses:
- const called = function() {}();
+ const called = (() => {})();
Fix #696. useHookAtTopLevel now correctly detects early returns before the calls to the hook.
-
The code fix of noUselessTypeCOnstraint now adds a trailing comma when needed to disambiguate a type parameter list from a JSX element. COntributed by @Conaclos

namespace. Contributed by @XiNiHa
Fix #910. noSvgWithoutTitle
now ignores <svg>
element with aria-hidden="true"
. COntributed by @vasucp1207
-
The representation of imports has been simplified. Contributed by @Conaclos
The new representation is closer to the ECMAScript standard. It provides a single way of representing a namespace import such as
import * as ns from ""
. It rules out some invalid states that was previously representable. For example, it is no longer possible to represent a combined import with atype
qualifier such asimport type D, { N } from ""
.See #1163 for more details.
-
Imports and exports with both an import attribute and a
type
qualifier are now reported as parse errors.import type A from "mod" with { type: "json" }; // ^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ // parse error
-
Fix #1077 where parenthesized identifiers in conditional expression were being parsed as arrow expressions. Contributed by @kalleep
These cases are now properly parsed:
JavaScript:
a ? (b) : a => {};
TypeScript:
a ? (b) : a => {};
JSX:
bar ? (foo) : (<a>{() => {}}</a>);
-
Allow empty type parameter lists for interfaces and type aliases (#1237). COntributed by @togami2864
TypeScript allows interface declarations and type aliases to have empty type parameter lists. Previously Biome didn't handle this edge case. Now, it correctly parses this syntax:
interface Foo<> {} type Bar<> = {};

-
Address #924 and #920. noUselessElse now ignores
else
clauses that follow at least oneif
statement that doesn't break early. Contributed by @ConaclosFor example, the following code is no longer reported by the rule:
function f(x) { if (x < 0) { // this `if` doesn't break early. } else if (x > 0) { return x; } else { // This `else` block was previously reported as useless. } }

-
Remove
noConfusingArrow
Code formatters, such as prettier and Biome, always adds parentheses around the parameter or the body of an arrow function. This makes the rule useless.
Contributed by @Conaclos

noAssignInExpressions no longer suggest code fixes. Most of the time the suggestion didn't match users' expectations. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUselessConstructor no longer emits safe code fixes. Contributed by @Conaclos
All code fixes are now emitted as unsafe code fixes. Removing a constructor can change the behavior of a program.
-
useCollapsedElseIf now only provides safe code fixes. Contributed by @Conaclos
-
noUnusedVariables now reports more cases.
The rule is now able to ignore self-writes. For example, the rule reports the following unused variable:
let a = 0; a++; a += 1;
The rule is also capable of detecting an unused declaration that uses itself. For example, the rule reports the following unused interface:
interface I { instance(): I }
Finally, the rule now ignores all TypeScript declaration files, including global declaration files.

- Biome uses
biome.json
first, then it attempts to userome.json
. - Fix a case where Biome couldn't compute correctly the ignored files when the VSC integration is enabled. Contributed by @ematipico
- The LSP now uses its own socket and won't rely on Biome's socket. This fixes some cases where users were seeing
multiple servers in the
rage
output.
- You can use
// biome-ignore
as suppression comment. - The
// rome-ignore
suppression is deprecated.
- Add useCollapsedElseIf rule. This new rule requires merging
an
else
and anif
, if theif
statement is the only statement in theelse
block. Contributed by @n-gude
-
useTemplate now reports all string concatenations.
Previously, the rule ignored concatenation of a value and a newline or a backquote. For example, the following concatenation was not reported:
v + "\n"; "`" + v + "`";
The rule now reports these cases and suggests the following code fixes:
- v + "\n"; + `${v}\n`; - v + "`"; + `\`${v}\``;

useExponentiationOperator suggests better code fixes.
The rule now preserves any comment preceding the exponent, and it preserves any parenthesis around the base or the exponent. It also adds spaces around the exponentiation operator
**
, and always adds parentheses for pre- and post-updates.- Math.pow(a++, /**/ (2)) + (a++) ** /**/ (2)

Fix #80, making noDuplicateJsxProps case-insensitive.
Some frameworks, such as Material UI, rely on the case-sensitivity of JSX properties. For example, TextField has two properties with the same name, but distinct cases:
<TextField inputLabelProps="" InputLabelProps=""></TextField>

Fix #138
noCommaOperator now correctly ignores all use of comma operators inside the update part of a
for
loop. The following code is now correctly ignored:for ( let i = 0, j = 1, k = 2; i < 100; i++, j++, k++ ) {}

Fix rome#4713.
Previously, useTemplate made the following suggestion:
- a + b + "px" + `${a}${b}px`
This breaks code where
a
andb
are numbers.Now, the rule makes the following suggestion:
- a + b + "px" + `${a + b}px`

Fix rome#4109
Previously, useTemplate suggested an invalid code fix when a leading or trailing single-line comment was present:
// leading comment - 1 /* inner comment */ + "+" + 2 // trailing comment + `${// leading comment + 1 /* inner comment */}+${2 //trailing comment}` // trailing comment
Now, the rule correctly handles this case:
// leading comment - 1 + "+" + 2 // trailing comment + `${1}+${2}` // trailing comment
As a sideeffect, the rule also suggests the removal of any inner comments.

Fix rome#3850
Previously useExponentiationOperator suggested invalid code in a specific edge case:
- 1 +Math.pow(++a, 2) + 1 +++a**2
Now, the rule properly adds parentheses:

The organize imports feature now groups import statements by "distance".
Modules "farther" from the user are put on the top, and modules "closer" to the user are placed on the bottom. Check the documentation for more information about it.
-
The organize imports tool is enabled by default. If you don't want to use it, you need to disable it explicitly:
{ "organizeImports": { "enabled": false } }
-
The CLI now exists with an error when there's an error inside the configuration.
Previously, biome would raise warnings and continue the execution by applying its defaults.
This could have been better for users because this could have created false positives in linting or formatted code with a configuration that wasn't the user's.
-
The command
biome check
now shows formatter diagnostics when checking the code.The diagnostics presence will result in an error code when the command finishes.
This aligns with semantic and behaviour meant for the command
biome check
. -
init
command emits abiome.json
file;
-
Fix #4670, don't crash at empty default export.
-
Fix #4556, which correctly handles new lines in the
.gitignore
file across OS. -
Add a new option to ignore unknown files
--files-ignore-unknown
:biome format --files-ignore-unknown ./src
Doing so, Biome won't emit diagnostics for files that doesn't know how to handle.
-
Add the new option
--no-errors-on-unmatched
:biome format --no-errors-on-unmatched ./src
Biome doesn't exit with an error code if no files were processed in the given paths.
-
Fix the diagnostics emitted when running the
biome format
command. -
Biome no longer warns when discovering (possibly infinite) symbolic links between directories.
This fixes #4193 which resulted in incorrect warnings when a single file or directory was pointed at by multiple symbolic links. Symbolic links to other symbolic links do still trigger warnings if they are too deeply nested.
-
Introduced a new command called
biome lint
, which will only run lint rules against the code base. -
Biome recognizes known files as "JSON files with comments allowed":
typescript.json
;tsconfig.json
;jsconfig.json
;tslint.json
;babel.config.json
;.babelrc.json
;.ember-cli
;typedoc.json
;.eslintrc.json
;.eslintrc
;.jsfmtrc
;.jshintrc
;.swcrc
;.hintrc
;.babelrc

-
Add support for
biome.json
;
-
Add a new option to ignore unknown files:
{ "files": { "ignoreUnknown": true } }
Doing so, Biome won't emit diagnostics for file that it doesn't know how to handle.
-
Add a new
"javascript"
option to support the unsafe/experimental parameter decorators:{ "javascript": { "parser": { "unsafeParameterDecoratorsEnabled": true } } }
-
Add a new
"extends"
option, useful to split the configuration file in multiple files:{ "extends": ["../sharedFormatter.json", "linter.json"] }
The resolution of the files is file system based, Biome doesn't know how to resolve dependencies yet.
-
The commands
biome check
andbiome lint
now show the remaining diagnostics even when--apply-safe
or--apply-unsafe
are passed. -
Fix the commands
biome check
andbiome lint
, they won't exit with an error code if no error diagnostics are emitted. -
Add a new option
--error-on-warnings
, which instructs Biome to exit with an error code when warnings are emitted.biome check --error-on-warnings ./src
-
Add a configuration to enable parsing comments inside JSON files:
{ "json": { "parser": { "allowComments": true } } }
-
The Biome LSP can now show diagnostics belonging to JSON lint rules.
-
The Biome LSP no longer applies unsafe quickfixes on-save when
editor.codeActionsOnSave.quickfix.biome
is enabled. -
Fix #4564; files too large don't emit errors.
-
The Biome LSP sends client messages when files are ignored or too big.
-
Add a new option called
--jsx-quote-style
.This option lets you choose between single and double quotes for JSX attributes.
-
Add the option
--arrow-parentheses
.This option allows setting the parentheses style for arrow functions.
-
The JSON formatter can now format
.json
files with comments.
-
Remove
complexity/noExtraSemicolon
(#4553)The Biome formatter takes care of removing extra semicolons. Thus, there is no need for this rule.
-
Remove
useCamelCase
Use useNamingConvention instead.
-
Add noGlobalIsFinite
This rule recommends using
Number.isFinite
instead of the global and unsafeisFinite
that attempts a type coercion. -
Add noGlobalIsNan
This rule recommends using
Number.isNaN
instead of the global and unsafeisNaN
that attempts a type coercion. -
Add noUnsafeDeclarationMerging
This rule disallows declaration merging between an interface and a class.
-
This rule disallows useless aliasing of
this
in arrow functions. -
Add useArrowFunction
This rule proposes turning function expressions into arrow functions. Function expressions that use
this
are ignored. -
This rule disallow duplicate keys in a JSON object.
-
Add noVoid
This rule disallows the use of
void
. -
This rule disallows
\8
and\9
escape sequences in string literals. -
This rule disallows useless
export {}
. -
Add useIsArray
This rule proposes using
Array.isArray()
instead ofinstanceof Array
. -
Add useGetterReturn
This rule enforces the presence of non-empty return statements in getters. This makes the following code incorrect:
class Person { get firstName() {} }
New rules are promoted, please check #4750 for more details:
- a11y/useHeadingContent
- complexity/noForEach
- complexity/useLiteralKeys
- complexity/useSimpleNumberKeys
- correctness/useIsNan
- suspicious/noConsoleLog
- suspicious/noDuplicateJsxProps
The following rules are now recommended:
-
Add new TypeScript globals (
AsyncDisposable
,Awaited
,DecoratorContext
, and others) 4643. -
noRedeclare: allow redeclare of index signatures are in different type members #4478
Improve noConsoleLog, noGlobalObjectCalls, useIsNan,
and useNumericLiterals by handling globalThis
and window
namespaces.
For instance, the following code is now reported by noConsoleLog
:
globalThis.console.log("log")
-
Improve noDuplicateParameters to manage constructor parameters.
-
Improve noInnerDeclarations
Now, the rule doesn't report false-positives about ambient TypeScript declarations. For example, the following code is no longer reported by the rule:
declare var foo;
-
Improve useEnumInitializers
The rule now reports all uninitialized members of an enum in a single diagnostic.
Moreover, ambient enum declarations are now ignored. This avoids reporting ambient enum declarations in TypeScript declaration files.
declare enum Weather { Rainy, Sunny, }
-
Relax noBannedTypes and improve documentation
The rule no longer reports a user type that reuses a banned type name. The following code is now allowed:
import { Number } from "a-lib"; declare const v: Number;
The rule now allows the use of the type
{}
to denote a non-nullable generic type:function f<T extends {}>(x: T) { assert(x != null); }
And in a type intersection for narrowing a type to its non-nullable equivalent type:
type NonNullableMyType = MyType & {};
-
Improve noConstantCondition
The rule now allows
while(true)
. This recognizes a common pattern in the web community:while (true) { if (cond) { break; } }
-
Improve the diagnostic and the code action of useDefaultParameterLast.
The diagnostic now reports the last required parameter which should precede optional and default parameters.
The code action now removes any whitespace between the parameter name and its initialization.
-
Relax
noConfusingArrow
All arrow functions that enclose its parameter with parenthesis are allowed. Thus, the following snippet no longer trigger the rule:
var x = (a) => 1 ? 2 : 3;
The following snippet still triggers the rule:
var x = a => 1 ? 2 : 3;
-
Relax useLiteralEnumMembers
Enum members that refer to previous enum members are now allowed. This allows a common pattern in enum flags like in the following example:
enum FileAccess { None = 0, Read = 1, Write = 1 << 1, All = Read | Write, }
Arbitrary numeric constant expressions are also allowed:
enum FileAccess { None = 0, Read = 2**0, Write = 2**1, All = Read | Write, }
-
Improve useLiteralKeys.
Now, the rule suggests simplifying computed properties to string literal properties:
{ - ["1+1"]: 2, + "1+1": 2, }
It also suggests simplifying string literal properties to static properties:
{ - "a": 0, + a: 0, }
These suggestions are made in object literals, classes, interfaces, and object types.
-
Improve noNewSymbol.
The rule now handles cases where
Symbol
is namespaced with the globalglobalThis
orwindow
. -
The rules useExhaustiveDependencies and useHookAtTopLevel accept a different shape of options
Old configuration:
{ "linter": { "rules": { "nursery": { "useExhaustiveDependencies": { "level": "error", "options": { "hooks": [ ["useMyEffect", 0, 1] ] } } } } } }
New configuration:
{ "linter": { "rules": { "nursery": { "useExhaustiveDependencies": { "level": "error", "options": { "hooks": [ { "name": "useMyEffect", "closureIndex": 0, "dependenciesIndex": 1 } ] } } } } } }
-
noRedundantUseStrict check only
'use strict'
directive to resolve false positive diagnostics.React introduced new directives, "use client" and "use server". The rule raises false positive errors about these directives.
-
Fix a crash in the NoParameterAssign rule that occurred when there was a bogus binding. #4323
-
Fix useExhaustiveDependencies in the following cases #4330:
- when the first argument of hooks is a named function
- inside an export default function
- for
React.use
hooks
-
Fix noInvalidConstructorSuper that erroneously reported generic parents #4624.
-
Fix noDuplicateCase that erroneously reported as equals the strings literals
"'"
and'"'

Fix NoUnreachableSuper's false positive diagnostics (#4483) caused to nested if statement.
The rule no longer reports
This constructor calls super() in a loop
when using nested if statements in a constructor. -
Fix useHookAtTopLevel's false positive diagnostics (#4637)
The rule no longer reports false positive diagnostics when accessing properties directly from a hook and calling a hook inside function arguments.
-
Fix noUselessConstructor which erroneously reported constructors with default parameters rome#4781
-
Fix noUselessFragments's panics when running
biome check --apply-unsafe
(#4637)This rule's code action emits an invalid AST, so I fixed using JsxString instead of JsStringLiteral
-
Fix noUndeclaredVariables's false positive diagnostics (#4675)
The semantic analyzer no longer handles
this
reference identifier. -
Fix noUnusedVariables's false positive diagnostics (#4688)
The semantic analyzer handles ts export declaration clause correctly.
-
Add support for decorators in class method parameters, example:
class AppController { get(@Param() id) {} // ^^^^^^^^ new supported syntax }
This syntax is only supported via configuration, because it's a non-standard syntax.
{ "javascript": { "parser": { "unsafeParameterDecoratorsEnabled": true } } }
-
Add support for parsing comments inside JSON files:
{ "json": { "parser": { "allowComments": true } } }
-
Add support for the new
