We don’t implement stylistic rules in the linter. Instead, we rely on the formatter for which we follow Prettier rules.

I’m sorry I didn't understand the explanation, how is Prettier relevant to this thread?
And just to confirm, is Prettier a sub dependency?

[arendjr]

Biome is a replacement for both ESLint and Prettier, so while it doesn't depend on Prettier, it does follow Prettier's philosophy and rules for all things formatting-related.

Because of this, we've made the decision to not implement any of ESLint's formatting rules, since that would conflict with the formatter and its philosophy.

I see, thank you. That's a bit sad decision, to be honest 😕

Me and the groups I work with, find Prettier not DX friendly due to lack of implementations that increase the readability of code. Such as this thread and the logical operator placement. I hope you and your team reconsider the decision

I want that too!!!!1

@arendjr Is there a similar formatting option for the "padding-line-between-statements" rule in the formatter?
