Answer 1

I tried Mohammad's solution but with no luck, I followed Rafeel answer and instead of adding his suggested code sample I removed below code from web .csproj and finally I was able to build and run my project. There were two places where you should remove that in the same file. Still, I don't have any clue how the removed code will affect my solution.

<Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath32)\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v$(VisualStudioVersion)\TypeScript\Microsoft.TypeScript.Default.props" Condition="Exists('$(MSBuildExtensionsPath32)\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v$(VisualStudioVersion)\TypeScript\Microsoft.TypeScript.Default.props')" />

Hope this will also help someone to save the day..!!!

In Visual Studio 2017 (v 15.8.0):

Option 1: Options > JS Errors

1. Open Tools > Options
2. Navigate to Text Editor > JavaScript/TypeScript > Code Validation
3. Set Enable JavaScript errors to false
4. or, set Enable JavaScript errors to true and Show errors as warnings to true

I needed to restart Visual Studio for this to take effect.

Option 2: Options > Linting

There is another option below which will let you edit your global linting settings:

Option 3: .eslint file

You can also create a file named .eslintrc in the root of your project.

Option 4: ESLint commands in-file

Answer 3

I think, find the solution:

1. Open Tools > Options
2. Navigate to Text Editor > JavaScript/TypeScript > EsLint (in VS2017 15.8 it is Linting not EsLint)
3. Set Enable ESLint to False

Visual Studio >= 15.8.5

Answer 4

I tried Mohammad`s solution but it didn't work. I managed to work doing the following:

1. Righ click on your web .csproj file
2. On the first <PropertyGroup> add the following entry: <TypeScriptCompileBlocked>true</TypeScriptCompileBlocked>

Answer 5

Add /*eslint eqeqeq: ["error", "smart"]*/ to the first line of your Javascript code to remove the errors. https://eslint.org/docs/rules/eqeqeq

Following Mohammad's solution will turn off ESLint for syntax checking. This works in VS2015 and should work in later versions.

Answer 6

I've just had to change the "eqeqeq" rule behaviour to include "smart":

Edit the .eslintrc file found in your user root folder mentioned in other answers already.

The change is made to the rules section by adding the smart rule

    "rules": {

    "eqeqeq": [2, "smart"],

Copied from the web article: This option enforces the use of === and !== except for these cases:

1. Comparing two literal values
2. Evaluating the value of typeof
3. Comparing against null

I found the specifics at: https://eslint.org/docs/2.0.0/rules/eqeqeq
