We just pushed ESLint v8.8.0, which is a minor release upgrade of ESLint. This release adds some new features and fixes several bugs found in the previous release.

Highlights

Suppressed Messages

Suppressed messages are lint messages (errors and warnings) that were suppressed by eslint-disable, eslint-disable-line and eslint-disable-next-line comments.

ESLint API now provides information about suppressed lint messages. This information is available to custom formatters and API users as a new property suppressedMessages (array of SuppressedLintMessage objects) on LintResult objects.
