eslint-plugin-deprecation helps identify and flag deprecated code within your JavaScript projects during development. It integrates seamlessly with ESLint, analyzing your code for the usage of deprecated APIs, functions, or features. By highlighting these instances, developers can proactively address them, ensuring code maintainability, and preventing potential issues arising from future updates. This plugin assists in migrating towards more modern and supported alternatives, contributing to a healthier and more robust codebase.
