eslint-config-next offers pre-configured ESLint rules tailored for Next.js projects, streamlining the setup of linting for improved code quality and consistency. Comparing versions 10.2.3 and 11.0.0, several key differences emerge. Version 11.0.0 introduces a dependency on eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y at version ^6.4.1 which enables accessibility checks, helping developers build more inclusive and user-friendly applications. The core Next.js ESLint plugin, @next/eslint-plugin-next, is also updated from version 10.2.3 to 11.0.0, incorporating the latest linting rules and recommendations specific to Next.js features and best practices.
While most peer dependencies remain the same, staying aligned with next >=10.2.0, eslint ^7.23.0, and typescript >=3.3.1, developers should verify compatibility for any customized ESLint configurations. The unpacked size increased slightly from 3370 to 3762, which is likely due to the addition of accessibility related rules. By upgrading to 11.0.0, developers benefit from enhanced accessibility linting and Next.js-specific rule updates, promoting cleaner, more accessible, and maintainable codebases within their Next.js environments. Developers who are conscious about accessibility should definitely upgrade to benefit from the new rules.
