Basic Node Starter (Based on Standard.JS v17)

It's useful when starting a simple npm project which doesn't require any config, db, etc...

Please note that version 17 of Standard.JS is still a pre-release version

Advantages of using Standard.JS v17

• Version 17 of Standard.JS based on ESLint 8.
• Don't need to configure babel parser to use experimental JavaScript (ES Next) features

This major release fully focuses on getting in sync with the wider ESLint ecosystem and doesn't in itself introduce any new rules or features.

This pre-release exists to test out the ESLint 8 related changes and discover possible backwards incompatible changes that comes with it and mitigate unintended such before a stable release.

When you upgrade, consider running standard --fix to automatically format your code to match the current set of rules.
