Description

Disallow unnecessary concatenation of string or template literals.

This rule aims to flag concatenation of string or template literals when they could be combined into a single literal. Notably, this also includes concatenating a string with a number (unlike the derivative ESLint rule).

Concatenation of multiple strings is allowed for multi-line strings (such as ones used to prevent exceeding the maximum line width).

Examples

1
const a = "a" + "b";
