Ultracite is a highly opinionated, zero-configuration preset for JavaScript/TypeScript linting and formatting that wraps Biome, ESLint + Prettier + Stylelint, or Oxlint + Oxfmt. It provides an init CLI that configures frameworks, editors, AI agents, and Git hooks, with framework-specific presets layered on a strict core config.

Use cases

• set up linting and formatting for a TypeScript project with zero config
• replace ESLint and Prettier with a single opinionated preset
• configure Biome for a React or Next.js codebase
• add lint rules for React, Vue, Svelte, Astro, or NestJS automatically
• set up format-on-save in VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or Zed
• generate linting config files for AI coding agents like Claude or Codex
• add pre-commit hooks with Husky or Lefthook for linting

When to choose

• you want instant, opinionated linting and formatting without writing config files
• your team wants consistent code style and strict type-safety rules out of the box
• you want fast Rust-based tooling via Biome or Oxlint on large codebases
• you want editor, agent, and Git hook setup handled by one init command

When to avoid

• you need fully custom lint rule sets or minimal, unopinionated configs
• your project relies heavily on languages with limited support like Markdown, YAML, or MDX linting under Biome/Oxlint
• you prefer to hand-pick and tune every lint rule yourself
