How to disable JavaScript build error in Visual Studio 2017?

Solution 1:

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

Solution 2:

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
