ESLintrequire parentheses when invoking a constructor with no arguments (new-parens)
The --fix option on the command line can automatically fix some of the problems reported by this rule.
JavaScript allows the omission of parentheses when invoking a function via the new keyword and the constructor has no arguments. However, some coders believe that omitting the parentheses is inconsistent with the rest of the language and thus makes code less clear.
var person = new Person;
