Why usesoap?

To clean away grime, (code) smells and such in order to make it harder for bad code (and viruses?) to tag along.

Seriously, too few projects use linting, and 🔥too much expertise 🔥is required🔥 to properly set up the today's tools.

Competition

If usesoap is not for you, then maybe you can still have use for some of its components? usesoap is made of

prettier https://www.npmjs.com/package/prettier
tiny bits of code
E.S.Lint (not a German, this one ☞ eslint ☜ ✌. As if you weren't already aquainted?)
NODE_PATH, eslint issue tracker sleuthing, and hacks
and political correctness? *So, it's like this: I asked alex and he/she/it told me this text is probably not insentisive. But if anyone feels offended, why not come along for this ride, and see where it takes us? It might be more fun even to be together, even if offended.

Ok, so I kind of skipped over those:

xo https://www.npmjs.com/package/xo - this one is really close to what I wanted to achieve. Famous create-react-app uses xo and alex on incoming PRs.
HegelJS https://hegel.js.org/
TypeScript's linter
flow https://flow.org/en/
JSLHint https://jshint.com/about/ And all the linters and languages that are not in the ECMAScript TC39 (or javascript) crowd.
