Biome formats and lints your JavaScript and TypeScript code in a fraction of a second. Biome is the community successor of Rome [0].

As part of the announcement of Biome [1], we have released the first stable version of Biome [2], which includes many bug fixes and new features!

Join us on our Discord [3] to share the excitement of the launch!

I am one of the main maintainers of Biome. I will be happy to answer any question :)

Could someone updates the title to "Announcing Biome: formatter and linter for the web" and pointing to the announcement blog post [0]? Thanks!

For the record, I submitted this as “Announcing Biome,” which is the title of the post (as is hn custom) and the link does point to that page.

(Hacker News automatically transforms titles that fit certain patterns, and apparently “Announcing X” is one of them.)


For those that don't know before clicking the link: this is a fork of https://rome.tools/

I've been using Rome for awhile and think it's an excellent project with a ton of potential. I'm excited to see the project grow beyond the original company and see a second wind.

I think this fork is a step in the right direction, excited to see where it ends up!


Been interested lately in switching to a fast combined linter/formatter instead of the standard eslint + prettier combo, which are quite slow. Not sure I'll pick Biome (deno lint + fmt is another option) but it's a lot more likely now than picking Rome when it was in limbo.


Glad to see my contributions included in a public release =) https://biomejs.dev/blog/biome-v1

Congrats to the team, and wishing the project a healthy future!


Congrats to the team, the rebrand was overdue!

I'd love to see some kind of collaboration or interoperability with dprint in the future.


Which kind of interoperability?


The possibility to use dprint plugins (Dockerfile, TOML, Markdown, custom ones) would be awesome.


My compliments to Emanuele and the Biome core team (formerly the Rome core team) for seizing this opportunity!


Is Intellij support on the roadmap


Some preliminary works were done [0].
