Are you sure that running eslint --init worked ?

This is like you have no .eslintrc file (the configuration file for ESLint parser options and rules). Check/create the .eslintrc file at the root directory of your project that you called " beslint ".

Then you'll need to add this in the .eslintrc file in order that ESLint take into account that you want to extend the rules from the Airbnb team:

{ "extends": "airbnb" }

Note that you can install different rules from the Airbnb team:

• " airbnb ": Airbnb ESLint rules, including ECMAScript 6+ and React
• " airbnb-base ": Airbnb ESLint rules, including ECMAScript 6+
• " airbnb-base/legacy ": Airbnb ESLint rules, including ECMAScript 5 and below

The extends value in your .eslintrc file should match your installation and be one of these three previous values.

I made a little command line tool that can install ESLint with one of these three different Airbnb configs. It automatically creates and configure the .eslintrc file if it has not already been done. It helps me a lot on my personal projects and at work! It's called esbnb . Hope it could help you.
