# Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide

This skill provides the core rules from the Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide (ES6+). It focuses on readability, maintainability, and avoiding common pitfalls.

## Rule Categories

### 1. References
- `references` - Use `const` and `let`, avoid `var`.

### 2. Objects & Arrays
- `objects` - Literal syntax, computed properties, shorthand methods.
- `arrays` - Literal syntax, push, spread, array methods.
- `destructuring` - Object and array destructuring patterns.

### 3. Functions
- `functions` - Named expressions, no arguments object, default params.
- `arrow-functions` - Use arrows for callbacks, implicit returns.

### 4. Classes & Modules
- `classes` - Use `class` and `extends`, method chaining.
- `modules` - Standard `import`/`export`, no wildcards, default exports.

### 5. Naming
- `naming-conventions` - CamelCase, PascalCase, constants, and filenames.

### 6. Control Flow & Comments
- `blocks-control-statements` - Braces, no cuddled elses, split long conditions.
- `comparison-equality` - strict equality `===`, ternary rules.
- `comments` - Multiline/Singleline patterns, FIXME/TODO.

### 7. Formatting & Misc
- `formatting` - Whitespace, commas, semicolons.
- `accessors-events` - Getters/Setters patterns, Event hashes.
- `types` - Primitives vs Complex.
- `strings` - Single quotes, template literals.
- `hoisting` - Variable declaration placement.
- `iterators-generators` - Avoid iterators, use higher-order functions.
- `properties` - Dot notation vs brackets.
- `type-casting` - Explicit casting helpers.
