The recommended set is not entirely suitable for Typescript. Have a look at packages/eslint-plugin/src/configs, there is a configuration that fixes that. It'd be great if you could add "plugin:@typescript-eslint/eslint-recommended", since it clearly isn't documented well enough.

@ThomasdenH Good points, thanks! Will look into it later today.

@ThomasdenH I tried to experiment with how various configs behave on our codebase and it lead me to create #592. Will happily document integration with eslint:recommended once it's clear to me how it's best done.

The best integration would be:

[
  'eslint:recommended',
  // airbnb, etc
  'plugin:@typescript-eslint/eslint-recommended',
  'plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended'
  // prettier, etc
]

Great! Would you put it to the basic Usage section or dedicate a new one to it?

Another option is to link to eslint-plugin/src/configs which already has a good README about the various configs and probably a better chance to stay up to date :)

I would say this should probably do a few things.
I doubt we'll add any more "recommended" style configs, and the configs readme is more there so I can direct people to it when they get their knickers in a knot over the recommended ruleset :)

Could you please do the following.

• change the wording from

- You can also enable all the recommended rules at once. Add `plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended` in extends:
+ You can also enable all the recommended rules for our plugin. Add `plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended` in extends:

• add a new "section" below that along the lines of

You can also use eslint recommended with this plugin. Add both `eslint:recommended ` and `plugin:@typescript-eslint/eslint-recommended`:

  'plugin:@typescript-eslint/eslint-recommended',
  'plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended'
]
