How do I disable jshint for entire folder in a project using .jshintrc

I am getting jshint error in every file in a project. I don't need jshint for that particular project.

How can I disable jshint using .jshintrc

I found that you can exclude jshint by using following code in vscode settings.json

"jslint.exclude": {
     "C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\tmp": true,
     "**\\*.es6": true
}

but the problem is if I change the location I am getting errors again.

Is it possible to do so?

I'm not sure if you can accomplish this with the .jshintrc file. However, if you need to disable jshint for the entire project, you can disable it in the workspace settings.

Within a folder at the root of your project called .vscode, create a file called settings.json. Within this file, set this property:

{
    "jshint.enable": false
}
