Question

I am getting this error from ESLint:

error  Parsing error: The keyword \'const\' is reserved

from

Answer 1

I had this same problem with this part of my code:

const newComment = {
    dishId: dishId,
    rating: rating,
    author: author,
    comment: comment
};
newComment.date = new Date().toISOString();

Same error, const is a reserved word.

The thing is, I made the .eslintrc.js from the link you gave in the update and still got the same error. Also, I get an parsing error in the .eslintrc.js: Unexpected token ':'.

Right in this part:

"env": {
"browser": true,
"node": true,
"es6": true
},
