I got this warning, Auto Fix is enabled by default. Use the single string form.

So, I changed it to,

"eslint.validate": [
        "vue",
        "html",
        "javascript",
        "typescript",
        "javascriptreact",
        "typescriptreact"
    ]

However, according to github.com/Microsoft/vscode-eslint..., mixed form or autofix: false should work as well.

Also, my .eslintignore, for extra fun!

!**/.eslintrc*
node_modules*
dist
*.svg
*.ico
*.json
.gitignore
*.md
*.log
*.lock

Nice one, this hint is going the right direction.

I'd just add check your user settings.json before blindly sticking the same eslint.validate JSON config in each workspace individually.

should the settings be added to ./vscode/settings.json or .vscode/settings.json? is it possible that this is an error in your post because it only worked for me with the latter.

Future not to me: install the ESLint plugin too. :-)

The Dollyrots' "Because I'm Awesome" was definitely inspired by you. Thanks.
