E0059: assignment to undeclared variable

It is an error to assign to a variable without declaring it:

tau = Math.pi * 2;

let emotion;
if (isHappy) {
  emotion = "happy";
} else {
  emotio = "sad";
}
console.log("I am " + emotion);

To fix this error, declare the variable using const or let:

let emotion;
if (isHappy) {
  emotion = "happy";
} else {
  emotion = "sad";
}
console.log("I am " + emotion);

Alternatively, if the variable is global in your environment, write a quick-lint-js.config file.

Introduced in quick-lint-js version 0.2.0.
