use `standard` linting

@jellegerbrandy semi-colons are required because of the prettier formatting rules; right now those are overriding all standard formatting rules (although non-formatting-related standard rules should still be enforced).

My two cents is that we should let go of our code-formatting predispositions and just let prettier handle it, so we can worry about other things (encapsulated very well in this tweet)

However, we can change this and enforce all standard rules if we want. The downside would be that the prettier output alone would no longer pass our build process. Let me know what you think!

Oh no, @bent0b0x , you have started a style war 😄

I vote for going back to have standard as the basic: it is what we use for paratii-lib and paratii-player: it is better to be consistent, and we all have our IDE's configured for that (as well as our brains, or at least mine :-)

[bent0b0x]

Haha oh no!

Gotcha; I just found https://github.com/sheerun/prettier-standard, which looks like a prettier formatter that adheres to the standard rules. I'll test this out today and look at swapping in for regular prettier.

Or, just let me know if you think it is best to ditch an auto-formatter altogether. I personally really like using them but open to a different viewpoint.

I am very much in favor of code standards, and I agree completely with the tweet you cited: that is more important to have a fixed style, but that the detaisl of that style are mostly abritrary : that is why I think we should not change them :-)

Anyway, closing this as it seems to me perfect now :-)
