Rome is a linter, compiler, bundler, and more for JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, HTML, Markdown, and CSS.

Rome is designed to replace Babel, ESLint, webpack, Prettier, Jest, and others.

Rome unifies functionality that has previously been separate tools. Building upon a shared base allows us to provide a cohesive experience for processing code, displaying errors, parallelizing work, caching, and configuration.

Rome has strong conventions and aims to have minimal configuration. Read more about our project philosophy.

Rome is written in TypeScript and runs on Node.js. Rome has zero dependencies, and has largely been written from scratch. See credits for more information.

Rome is maintained by a team of volunteers under an established governance model.

Rome is MIT licensed and moderated under the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct.
