ESLint configuration for Cycling 74’s Max/MSP
npm install eslint-config-max-msp   
> 🔎 ESLint configuration for Cycling 74’s Max/MSP
Add eslint and this config to your package dependencies:
``sh`
npm install -D eslint eslint-config-max-msp
This is a custom configuration for [ESLint][eslint]. It can help you write JavaScript for use with the js and jsui objects in [Cycling 74][c74]’s Max software by helping you catch errors in your text editor or on the command line. So far it includes:
- definitions for the global variables available inside Max so that ESLint won’t complain about “undefined” variables
- some basic rules that match common JavaScript usage in Max/MSP
> 💡 If you haven’t used ESLint before, you might want to read [“Getting Started with ESLint”][eslintro]
To use this configuration, you need to include an ESLint configuration file in your project. Below are example configuration files written in JSON and YAML. You can use whichever format you are more comfortable with and ESLint also supports [JavaScript configuration files][eslconfig].
`json`
{
"extends": [ "max-msp" ]
}
`yml``

extends:
- max-msp
