To automatically remove unused imports and console logs in TypeScript, you can use ESLint's auto-fix functionality. This process identifies and deletes dead variables, duplicate imports, and console statements to clean up your codebase during refactors or pre-commit checks.

Yes, you can use ESLint to enforce a production no-console policy by automatically removing console.log, console.warn, and console.error statements. This ensures your production build remains clean without requiring manual log deletion.

Setting up a pre-commit hook for code cleanup involves configuring a Git hook to run ESLint's lint:fix command before commits. This automatically prunes unused imports and dead variables, ensuring only clean code enters your repository.

Yes, ESLint preserves intentionally ignored variables during code cleanup if they are prefixed with an underscore. This allows you to retain specific unused variables for future use while still removing other dead code and unused imports.

The best way to clean up dead code in a JavaScript project is applying ESLint auto-remediation alongside Prettier. This combination automatically detects and prunes unused imports, console logs, and dead variables to streamline code reviews and refactoring.

ESLint might not remove your unused variables during lint fix if they are prefixed with an underscore, which marks them as intentionally ignored. Otherwise, ensure your ESLint configuration targets dead variable removal for your JavaScript or TypeScript files.
