## What it is
An ESLint plugin that enforces best practices for JavaScript promises through a set of linting rules. It is maintained under the eslint-community organization and ships with recommended and flat config presets.

## Use cases
- lint promise usage in JavaScript code
- catch unhandled promise rejections
- enforce always returning values inside then handlers
- prevent nesting promises and callbacks
- detect invalid promise constructor parameters
- add promise best-practice rules to a shared ESLint config

## When to choose
- your codebase uses promises heavily and you want consistent patterns
- you want automated detection of common promise anti-patterns like missing catch or multiple resolves
- you already use ESLint and want a drop-in plugin with recommended presets

## When to avoid
- your project does not use ESLint
- you primarily write async/await code with strict conventions already enforced
- you need TypeScript-specific type checking rather than linting
