[github.com/yannickcr/eslint-plugin-react]babel-eslint is a parser that allows you to use ESLint with code that is supported by Babel (ES6+ features, flow types, etc.). ESLint on it's own only supports ES6, JSX and object rest/spread. Anything beyond that, requires babel-eslint .
You only need to use babel-eslint if you are using types (Flow) or experimental features not supported in ESLint itself yet. Otherwise try the default parser (you don't have to use it just because you are using Babel).
Basically, it is a tool for identifying and reporting on patterns found in ECMAScript/JavaScript code. It analyzes your code quickly, finds any problems in your code, and even fixes them automatically. In this article, we are going to explore four essential ESLint plugins you will need in your React setup.
