prefer-dom-node-remove

📝 Prefer childNode.remove() over parentNode.removeChild(childNode).

💼 This rule is enabled in the following configs: ✅ recommended, ☑️ unopinionated.

🔧💡 This rule is automatically fixable by the --fix CLI option and manually fixable by editor suggestions.

Enforces the use of, for example, child.remove(); over child.parentNode.removeChild(child);. The DOM function Node#remove() is preferred over the indirect removal of an object with Node#removeChild().

Examples

// ❌
parentNode.removeChild(foo);

// ✅
foo.remove();

// ❌
parentNode.removeChild(this);

// ✅
this.remove();
