Description

Disallow new operators outside of assignments or comparisons.

The goal of using new with a constructor is typically to create an object of a particular type and store that object in a variable, such as:

1
const person = new Person();

It’s less common to use new and not store the result, such as:

1
new Person();

In this case, the created object is thrown away because its reference isn’t stored anywhere, and in many cases, this means that the constructor should be replaced with a function that doesn’t require new to be used.

Examples

Invalid

1
new Thing();
