No response
Expected behavior
Running npm run lint should output errors such as referring to an undefined variable.
Actual behavior
Nothing gets outputted
Steps to reproduce
Create new electron app using the Webpack + TypeScript template:
npm init electron-app@latest my-new-app -- --template=webpack-typescript
Modify l. 31 in renderer.js to artificially include a reference to an undefined variable:
console.log(`👋 This message is being logged by "renderer.js", included via webpack ${a}`); // a is not defined
Run eslint:
npm run eslint

Hi @guidupuy, do you have a more specific repro case? I don't think ESLint comes included when you initialize a new Forge app.
It does if you initialize it with:
npm init electron-app@latest my-new-app -- --template=webpack-typescript
Just tried again a minute ago.
