Do not use the Object constructor

Ensure that the Object constructor is not used. Object literals are clearer, more predictable, and improve readability.

Why this matters

The Object constructor is less readable and can lead to unexpected behavior. Object literals are safer and clearer.

Side-by-side examples engineers can pattern-match during review.

Avoid

const foo = new Object();

Prefer

const foo = {};

Bad

const foo = new Object();

Good

const foo = {};

From the same buckets as this rule.

Critical
Avoid Empty Methods
Detect methods that have an empty body. If a method is empty, ensure that a comment is present explaining why it remains unimplemented.

Critical
Avoid equality operators in loop termination conditions
Check if loops use equality operators (== or !=) in termination conditions. These can lead to infinite loops if the condition is never met exactly. Instead, use relational operators like < or > for safer loop termination.

Avoid Equality Operators in Loop Termination Conditions
Ensure that relational operators (`<`, `>`) are used instead of equality operators (`==`, `!=`) in loop termination conditions.
