Version 5.0.0 of eslint-rspack-plugin has been released as a pure ESM package and removes its CommonJS build. The change aligns the plugin with the Rstack ecosystem. The plugin still integrates ESLint into the build process and remains open source on npm.

To install or upgrade, take the 5.0.0 release from npm and move your project onto that pure ESM package. Because the CommonJS build is gone, update any import or require paths so they load the ESM package instead of the old CommonJS build.

Watch for longer build times when ESLint runs inside the build. Prefer a separate linting command if you need faster builds. After the upgrade, confirm the package resolves from npm, that your config loads the ESM entry, and that ESLint still runs as part of (or alongside) your build.
