Spatie JavaScript Guidelines

Overview

Apply Spatie's JavaScript coding standards to keep JS/TS code consistent and readable.

When to Activate

• Activate this skill for any JavaScript or TypeScript coding work.
• Activate this skill when working on .js, .ts, .jsx, .tsx, or .vue files.
• Activate this skill when configuring Prettier for a project.

Scope

• In scope: JavaScript, TypeScript, Vue single-file components, Prettier configuration.
• Out of scope: PHP, Laravel, CSS-only files, server configuration.

Workflow

1. Identify the JavaScript, TypeScript, Vue, or Prettier artifact being changed.
2. Read references/spatie-javascript-guidelines.md and focus on the relevant sections.
3. Apply Prettier configuration first, then the language rules relevant to the change.

Core Rules (Summary)

• Use four-space indentation, a 120-character print width, and single quotes.
• Prefer const, use let only for reassignment, and never use var.
• Avoid abbreviated variable names except in clear single-line arrow functions.
• Always use strict equality and cast values before comparing different types.
• Use function for declarations and arrow functions for anonymous or terse functions when appropriate.
• Keep functions pure, limit this, and use shorthand object methods.
• Prefer object and array destructuring.
