Discussion: consolidating a linter within the project

[bjohansebas]

I’m opening this discussion to consolidate in one place the conversation about the linter, as there have been discussions about code style spread across different packages

Some places where there has been discussion or an attempt to update or change standard/eslint:

• Migrate to semistandard serve-static#171
• migrate to neostandard / eslint-config-express serve-static#172
• Standard pillarjs/router#118
• https://openjs-foundation.slack.com/archives/C02QB1731FH/p1724097077789059
• https://openjs-foundation.slack.com/archives/C02QB1731FH/p1723917697193729
• v2.0.0 - Major Release (Proposal) jshttp/content-type#27
• deps: upgrade eslint express#6118
• style: format code with prettier express#6109

Thanks for opening this discussion - it's definitely overdue to bring all the linter/style conversations into one place.

I'm happy to help push this forward, and if there's interest, I'm also willing to take the lead on coordinating the effort. That includes drafting a proposed shared config, documenting migration steps and helping apply it consistently across repos.

Totally open to collaborating with others on this as well - just want to help get us to a place where we have consistent and maintainable linting across the three orgs.
