Developer Tools

Configures Biome, Vitest, and pre-commit hooks to automate code quality and testing in JavaScript and TypeScript projects.

This skill provides a streamlined way to initialize professional-grade code quality tooling for any JavaScript or TypeScript project using Bun. It prioritizes Biome 2.3+ for ultra-fast linting and formatting while offering legacy support for ESLint and Prettier. Beyond syntax checks, it integrates Vitest for unit testing with coverage thresholds and sets up Husky with lint-staged to enforce standards via pre-commit hooks. It also automatically generates VS Code and Cursor configuration files to ensure a seamless 'format-on-save' experience across development teams, making it an essential utility for starting new projects or standardizing existing ones.
