Essentially it’s an analyser, linter and and formatter. A bit like something that was popular for a while called, Rome. A lot like what we’re using to seeing in projects with something called, Prettier.
It’s fast! It also integrates very nicely within applications, whether you chose to use VSCode or add it in as a dependency into your project.
Here are a few ways you can set up Biome.
npm install --save-dev --save-exact @biomejs/biome
Search for “Biome” in extensions.
The docs do a great job of describing the underlying structure of everything and what makes it different from Prettier, gets exactly to the point. If you’re interested in understanding what’s going on, I would suggest delving into the GitHub repo.
