What did you do? Please include the actual source code causing the issue, as well as the command that you used to run ESLint.

I was following a tutorial which added the code below, but this seems to break ESLint for me. ESLint does not do anything if I add this line. The tutorial I was following was on prettier@v0.22.0 and eslint@v3.18.0 so I am not sure if this is deprecated or a bug, because I’m having trouble finding it in the documentation.

"plugins": [
    "prettier"
  ],

Paste the command you used to run ESLint:

VSCode extension

I forgot to install eslint-plugin-prettier.

I was following a tutorial and I must have missed that step. I assumed it would work because I had already installed Prettier and I was not getting any errors for missing packages.

Thanks for the update @EddyVinck.

Curious to know what was missed, in case others might find this issue in future. Mind sharing?
