ESLint configuration applies Node globals to browser-targeted JavaScript files

[Abderrahmane-MERSTANI]

Description
The ESLint configuration applies globals.node to all *.js files.
This can cause incorrect linting results when some JavaScript files are intended to run in a browser environment, as Node-specific globals (e.g. process, Buffer) will be considered valid even where they should not be used.

Code concerned

{
files: ['*.js'],
languageOptions: {
globals: {
...globals.node,
},
},
},

Problems

Browser code may incorrectly pass linting

Environment intent (Node vs Browser) is unclear

Potential hidden runtime errors in browsers

Reduced linting accuracy

Expected Behavior

Node globals should only apply to server-side files

Browser files should use globals.browser

Clear separation of environments

Suggested Fix

{
files: ['.js'],
languageOptions: {
globals: {
...globals.browser,
},
},
},
{
files: ['scripts/**/.js'],
languageOptions: {
globals: {
...globals.node,
},
},
},

Impact

More accurate linting

Clearer project structure

Fewer environment-related bugs

Better long-term maintainability
