An introduction to the ECMAScript proposal “Type Annotations” (by Gil Tayar, Daniel Rosenwasser, Romulo Cintra, Rob Palmer), which is currently at stage 1. This proposal provides optional type annotations for JavaScript. These annotations are ignored at runtime by JavaScript engines but used at development time for static type checking by tools such as TypeScript and Flow.

Highlights (quoting the blog post):

The no-implicit-globals rule now supports /*exported*/ directive comments.
The ESLINT_USE_FLAT_CONFIG environment variable can now be used for more control over switching between the current and the new config system.
The @eslint/create-config utility to create ESLint config files has a new option --config:
```
npm init @eslint/config --config semistandard
```
