About these scores

OSS scale score is an unbounded metric that log-compresses and weights Stars, Watchers, Forks, and Contributors. Discovery score is the current OSS scale score minus the score at discovery. Update pace is commits in the last 30 days, growth momentum is the OSS scale score difference within the recent observation window, and OSS health is a 0–100 rating based on available recency, Community Health, and release data.

Overview

Biome is a development tool for formatting and linting JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX, JSON, CSS, GraphQL, and related files. Implemented in Rust, it exposes the same toolchain through both CLI and LSP workflows.

Features and best fit

Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:

Run formatting and linting through one CLI

The formatter and linter share one configuration and command surface, making it easier to align local formatting with CI checks.

Sources: [2][3]

Use the same diagnostics through editor integrations

First-party editor integrations and LSP support bring the same formatting and diagnostics into interactive editing.

Sources: [2][4]

Useful for simplifying Prettier and ESLint-style workflows

It fits web projects that want to consolidate formatting and linting while reducing configuration and CI toolchain overhead.

Sources: [2]

Verify rule and plugin coverage before migration

Prettier compatibility and a large built-in rule set do not guarantee that every ESLint plugin or custom rule has a direct replacement. Check project-specific gaps first.

Supplemental curator note

Biome combines formatting and linting behind one CLI and LSP, which can reduce the number of tools and configurations in a project. The current npm package is 2.5.14 and declares `MIT OR Apache-2.0`. When migrating from Prettier and ESLint, verify the actual rules and plugins your project relies on rather than assuming compatibility percentages cover every extension.

Try it in 3 steps

  1. 1

    Add Biome as an exact development dependency

    Pin the project-local Biome version so developers and CI use the same formatter and linter.

    npm install --save-dev --save-exact @biomejs/biome
  2. 2

    Initialize Biome configuration

    Generate biome.json and keep formatter and linter settings with the project.

    npx @biomejs/biome init
  3. 3

    Run formatting and lint fixes together

    Analyze the project and apply supported formatting and safe lint fixes, reviewing the resulting diff before committing.

    npx @biomejs/biome check --write .
