The plugins used by our config for eslint also have to support the new 'flat config' format before we can make this upgrade. I will watch these issues and update this list when they are merged.

The latest update to this is that standard is now no longer going to be maintained and has splintered into a different plugin neo-standard. I guess this means that the eslint-config-standard is no longer maintained also and so we need to change to a different plugin.

Discovered that ESLint recently introduced a configuration migrator, taking advantage of the FlatConfig class for compatibility. This might come handy for making the jump.

neostandard is indeed like eslint-config-standard, but using ESLint 9 and Flat Config from the ground up, and more importantly: Has an open governance model

Feedback and questions are welcome 🙏

Since you use prettier as well the new option to deactivate style rules in neostandard should be welcome for you, may make eslint-config-prettier redundant

https://github.com/un-ts/eslint-plugin-import-x this is a fork of eslint-plugin-import that seemingly does support v9 (but not flat config). Could spike into updating to v9 and using this instead of plugin-import (which doesn't seem to have had any movement at all as of late)

import-js/eslint-plugin-import#2996 looks like this will soon be updated to v9 which will mean the last blocker has been removed

https://eslint.org/version-support/#current-release-lines v8 will soon be deprecated
